May 2013 The Parade was one of the best in years, and the boys made a killer float. Founders day dinner was also well received. We had 72 folks out at Nash's and once again Beach and Bozo played at the "O".

May 2012 This year, the parade went very well, great weather and nice participation by the community and the boys. They won best entry in the student category.  Charlie fixed some excellent food at the house after the parade for the Alumni meeting. Bozo and Beach played at the "O" that evening.  Photos posted on the Pioneer Day Parade Facebook page. Also be sure to join the TG Facebook page.

January 2008 We are already planning the 40th annual Founders Day, which will be held May 3, at the California Park Pavilion. This is going to be a big event, and we look forward to seeing may alumni who haven't been around for a while. Check with Dennis for more information. Don't forget the Pioneer Day Parade is the morning of the 3rd.

June 2007 Tim Guernsey just sent me a few photos from Pioneer Week '82, the old Chico Soda Works. That was a fun year. Come on, I know that more of you have some photos hiding around the house, why not share them with you brothers. Email to me, or mail them to me, and I'll scan them and return them promptly.  Plus, I'll send you a free copy of the TG P-Week DVD.

May 2007 We had a fantastic Pioneer Day Parade photos here & a very fun Founders Day. Great band at Founders Day. Photos here. My first TG Pioneer Week was 30 years ago, the Chico Flour Mill. I'll never forget building the Quad. We worked on it all night. In the morning when I was done, while leaving the area, I finally stopped and looked at what we just built. I was just amazed at what we had accomplished. Later that week, my first parade as a TG. It was so much fun.  I'm on the far right here, just after we won sweepstakes.

Posted Founders Day '05 pictures.  I scanned in some frames from an 8mm movie film from Pioneer Week 1976, see a very young looking Charlie Preusser.  I found some old B&W photos from my pledge class (Fall 76) and have posted them.  I also transferred stills from a video taped in '82.  Watch for more photos and still frames from TG home movies and video.
