A Quote to Start Things Off
We have two lives; the life we learn with and the life we live after that.”
― Bernard Malamud, The Natural
I went to the Elgin 4th of July Parade and took this footage of the Jesse White Tumblers. Jesse White started the tumbling team in 1959 as an positive activity for youth. I first saw the tumblers when they performed at Taste Of Chicago in the mid 80's and have seen them at least 20 times over the years. Jesse White served as an elected official in the state of Illinois from 1975 to earlier this year when his final term as Illinois Secretary of State came to an end.
