First, they walked on by. Then they drove on by.

A day before graduation, Coupeville High School’s Class of 2022 participated in an assortment of time-honored traditions.

The Wolves, sporting their robes, strolled down to the elementary school, passing through the hallways where many of them got their start.

Then they hit the road for a car parade, before heading off to breakfast.

Along the way photo whiz kid John Fisken snapped the pics you see above and below.

Trailblazer earns parade!!

   A parade will be held Aug. 5 to celebrate Jean Sherman’s 100th birthday. (Photo courtesy Marilyn Clay)

The legend will be cruising through town.

Jean Sherman, a trailblazer in female athletics in Coupeville, played long before Title IX was a reality.

As she hits the big 1-0-0 next month, local fans will get a chance to celebrate her life and accomplishments.

Sherman will be feted with a parade Sunday, Aug. 5, which will wrap up at Coupeville Town Park around noon.

She’ll be riding in the back of a convertible, allowing her many fans to greet her while she rides in style.

Cake will be on the menu, and a concert at the park will cap the festivities.

The parade is being planned by daughter Marilyn (Sherman) Clay.

“This (parade), in my mind, will allow her to see a LOT of people in a short time, and perhaps they can give her a card to read after, and not exhaust her,” Clay said. “She LOVES seeing people, and has great health and her mind is very sharp.

“Even if you don’t know her, please feel free to come,” Clay added. “I think it’s going to be a blast!”
