Description
This color slide shows two men in a covered wagon and a man on horseback during the Wagon Train parade down King Street in Boone. The Wagon Train, which traveled over multiple days from Wilkes County to Boone, began as a celebration of the 300th anniversary of the founding of North Carolina in 1963. The event would be held every summer until 1974. A crowd can be seen in the background, as well as the Northwestern Bank (most recently the Boone Town Hall).
