(ROCKWALL, TX — Dec. 1, 2016) Congratulations to Layne Yudizky, 4th grader at Pullen Elementary, on being chosen as this year’s Grand Marshall in the 47th Annual Rockwall Kiwanis Club Christmas Parade. He was chosen to be Grand Marshall by winning a poster contest. Layne’s artwork was selected for the parade poster from entries from all elementary schools in Rockwall ISD.
Layne says he loved the Rockwall logo, and since the theme this year was “Spirit of Rockwall,” he added Santa and Christmas trees within the logo to give it a holiday look. Layne is a hard worker, an A student, very athletic and he loves to draw. He is very excited about being Grand Marshall and that his grandparents are coming to watch the parade.
UPDATE
We just received word that the #Rockwall Kiwanis Christmas Parade has been cancelled due to the threat of inclement weather.
We sure will miss it! Everybody please stay safe and dry.
