May Day is coming up. It’s an interesting tradition in Eatonville — a royal court, elementary school dances — including a traditional May Pole dance —vendors and more.
Here’s a shot of the 1952 May Day court. Take a look at the backdrop. I think it’s covered with tulips. They spared no expense in 52′.
