Collection of newspaper clipping pertaining to a Saugatuck Holiday Parade stalwarts - the brave men of the Precision Snow Shovel Drill Team. Arch-rivals the Peppermint Stick Brigade are mentioned in the 2022 clipping.
Most of the clippings have the dates/source identifiers trimmed off except for one from Dec. 7, 2003 Grand Rapids press. Two clips reference the ABC network show "The New America's Funniest People" crew and one the 6th annual Sauga-Duck Festival
Collection also includes two photocopies of the drill team cadence call text:
"My gal shops in Saugatuck,
and she likes to spend a buck,
when I tell her no, no, no,
all she says is ho, ho, ho!"

This group of comically-dressed men — the off season version of the Lawn Mower Precision Drill Team — are and were the highlight of various Saugatuck parades as they sang, goofed around, and marched maneuvers with their snow shoves.
