Dear Royalty,
 
The London Strawberry Festival and Queen Briana Peterman cordially invite you to attend our festival, queens’ luncheon, and parade on Saturday, June 25, 2022.  All royalty members are invited.  Jr. Miss Emma Anderson, Young Miss Jaylee Bloomfield, Little Miss Sadie Buckland and Miss Shortcake Nia-Nichelle Reece extend this invitation to your younger courts.  Chaperons and royalty members, other than your queen, must pay $16 per person for the luncheon.
 
The luncheon will be held from 12:00-2:00 PM at the Della Selsor Building (Madison Co. Fairgrounds, 217 Em St., London OH 43140).  Please note the LOCATION.  Registration will begin at 11:00AM. Unfortunately, no one will be available to open the building before 11:00AM.  If you wish to arrive earlier, please, feel free to join us at the festival grounds for the COBRA Car Show or at the Madison Co. Airport for free plane rides.  There are changing facilities available.  All personal belongings must be taken with you, as we will not be able to return to the building.  Floats may go ahead to the lineup or wait until after the luncheon.
 
 Parade line up will be 3PM on Main St. by Cowling Park and parade begins at 4PM.  It will end near the Community Building, where the royalty will disembark and return for the queens’ speeches/festival introductions.  At this time, the 2022 queen will be crowned.  Unloading and parking will be available behind the Community Center (old London Middle School).
 
Briana is looking forward to visiting with everyone she has traveled with during the past year.  We hope you can attend. 
 
Please, return registration with payment by June 20.  Please, plan to have a mask and to social distance.  Covid 19 guidelines at the event time will be followed.

Experience the thrill of doing burnouts on Main Street, 10AM-3PM to raise money for charity. See lots of different makes and color combinations.  Check out the multitude of engine configurations.  Above all, relax and have FUN!
Raffle tickets $20 for a chance.  The 2022 London Cobra Show’s raffle is a Backdraft Racing RT4 Cobra replica.  https://londoncobrashow.com/
The London Cobra Show is organized by the Ohio Cobra Club to raise money to help fund research to help children that have Cystic Fibrosis. The money the club donates to Cystic Fibrosis comes from two primary sources. The owners of Cobras giving charity rides down Main Street and each year the club raffles off a replica of a Cobra. All net proceeds are donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Recently the club was presented with The Million Dollar Award by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
Thanks to the citizens of London and Madison County for their support of the London Cobra Show and helping children with Cystic Fibrosis.
