Staff Sergeant Jerry Nenycz of Plymouth, who earlier this year was named the Non-Commissioned Officer of the Year in Indiana, will be the Grand Marshall of the 2012 Knox Harvest Days Festival Parade. Nenycz is a 1999 graduate of Knox High School.

The Knox Harvest Days Festival is scheduled for August 24 – 26.

Festival Chairperson Michelle Bachtel told WKVI this week that more corporate sponsors are needed to help finance the three-day event.

Everyone is invited to go to the festival website at www.knoxharvestfestival.org for a registration form.

Finally, a Miss, Little Miss, and Tiny Miss Pageant is being planned with more information to follow on how contestants can register.
