The History of the World Famous Lawn Rangers

New book release celebrates history of "The World Famous Lawn Rangers" Twenty-nine years ago, a handful of Arcola area citizens (IL) decided it was time to be a part of Arcola's Famous Broom Corn Festival Parade. They took a talen inventory and came to the conclusion that pushing mowers and twirling brooms was probably the best they could do. But they did it with gusto. Soon after, invitations to appear in other festival parades poured in and the Rangers went on tour. The rest is history. Pat Monahan, co-founder of the group, has compiled a hilarious collection of newsletters, photos, correspondence and columns which tell this group's unique story.
