Shell Rock celebrates 155th Fourth of July

BY ANELIA K.DIMITROVA

Shell Rock celebrated its 155th Fourth of July parade in 2010.
Sirens blared as kids rushed to the the street to pick up the candy that rained from the floats.

Shell Rock's oldest truck, brought back to life by volunteer fireman Mike Schuldt, rolled through town in its full glory.

A lot has changed since 1855 when the town's founder, George Washington Adair planted his roots by the Shell Rock River, but what has endured is the pride his descendants display every Independence Day.
