Coronation
One of the highlight events for the Hopkins Raspberry Festival is the Coronation of the New Princesses and Queen.  Coordinator Melissa Specken did an amazing job on the 70^th Anniversary event.  We look forward to  seeing what she has in store for this year.  Held on Thursday (July 15^th  ) of Festival week, this coronation follows the crowning of the new reigning Senior and Junior Royalty.  It is the first formal introduction of the Royalty that will represent Hopkins for the next 12 months.  The coronation is followed by the traditional Grand Ball.  Entertainment last year will be by reknown local band Last Call

Following the coronation will be the presentation of the new royalty as they descend the beautiful staircase at the Hopkins Center for the Arts.

King and Queen Roman and Callan

Invite you to join them Wednesday, July 14th at 6:30 - at the Hopkins Center for the Arts.  A delightfully crafted set makes a fun backdrop for the incredibly excited and talented children.  While only four could be crowned,  2004 Coordinator Brenda Johnston made sure that each child had a memorable evening.
