Winton Monument Dedication

Today was the dedication of the monument that the Clampers made for Winton to celebrate Winton's Centennial.
The ceremony was held inside the firehouse because of the rainy weather. Pictured above is Rosalie Heppner, president of the Winton Historical Society and the MC for today, with Merced County Supervisor, Deidre Kelsey.
In the next picture are four of the Clampers standing behind the monument that their group made for Winton.
On the far left is the Noble Grand Humbug; on the far right is the future Noble Grand Humbug. He is the one who has his name on the plaque. The Clampers provide historical monuments once a year. Because of Winton's Centennial celebration this year, they are making two. So that is why the current Noble Grand Humbug doesn't have his name on the monument. That honor goes to the man on the far right. They bent the rules a bit to accommodate Winton this year.
They are also making a monument for the community of Hilmar at this time. To learn more about the Clampers go to this article at wikipedia.
