Dedication Celebration

August 24, 1951, Twin City News-Record
Feeling the post-war fervor for all things civic and successful, Menasha went all out for the dedication of the Racine Street Bridge in 1951, having a parade, dignitaries, speeches, a boat parade, street dances, and a banquet at the Hotel Menasha.  The city wouldn't see such a bounty of festivities again until the centennial celebration two years later.
