WAWASEE FLOTILLA —Wednesday, June 27, 1990

Marilyn Cole is Flotilla Queen

By JENNIFER WOODWARD Staff Writer Marilyn Cole has been selected as the 1990 Flotilla Queen, in other words, she’s the chairwoman. The flotilla has always been full of fun and good humour, being called “queen” goes right along with the attitude. Cole laughed when asked about being named Flotilla Queen and added that she found some napkins that she’s going to pass out to her family stating, “The queen does not cook.” Her selection as chairwoman was decided the first meeting after last year’s flotilla in July. The flotilla committee meets all year round planning for the big event. This year the committee even established a fund raiser enabling cash prizes to be awarded to this year’s winners. Basically, Cole’s duties as chairwoman is simply organizing the event. She explained that the big goal this year for the committee,,was to get area businesses involved with the flotilla. The flotilla committee would like to see more businesses out on the water this year with decorated boats. This way businesses can show their appreciation to the community. Cole and her husband, Sam, have been involved with the flotilla committee for the past six years, “We always enjoyed watching and wanted to help out with something for the community.” The Coles are originally from Marion but, have been in the area for 20 years. They have one daughter, Kathleen, who now resides in Indianapolis with her husband, David Keim, and son Benjamin. For the past few years the Cole family has teamed up with two other families, also from Marion originally, to create a float. The Coles, along with the Dr. Richard Henderson family and the Mike Kiley family, have won awards for their creative floats. They will work for months in preparation for the flotilla. When asked what this year’s decorated boat will be, Cole laughed, “It’s a secret. If I let it out what it was, they’d kill me!” She assured, however, that it was definitely going to be “cute.” Cole is really excited about this year’s flotilla, and hopes it will be bigger than ever. Since the
