Town of Tabor celebrates rich tradition with Czech Days parade

Tractors, trucks, bands and antique cars floated through Tabor, S.D. as part of the 61st annual Czech Days giant parade on Friday, June 19.

The parade featured 101 entries from Tabor and the neighboring five state areas, said parade marshal David Kloucek.

Politicians, musical acts, churches, businesses and other groups walked the 10-block parade route handing out candy and interacting with the community.

“Czech Days is a tradition that was brought over by our ancestors, when they came over from Czechoslovakia many years ago. And we’re trying to keep the tradition alive,” Kloucek said.
