SENSIT GENALD FORD BACKGROUNDER ON TULIP TIME FESTIVAL There are ten areas in the United States with a substantially large percentage of population derived from the Netherlands. The largest of these colonies is that of Western Michigan, covering an area of about 5,000 square miles of which the city of Holland is the center. The population of Holland and the adjacent villages is 84,650. Of this number, more than 75 percent are either Hollanders or descendents of the early Dutch immigrants. The population of Holland is about 26,000. This is the 47th annual Tulip Time Festival. It is a four-day festival which opened on Tuesday, May 12, and runs through Saturday, May 15. The festival opens with traditional street scrubbing ceremonies in which the Mayor and City Council inspect the streets, find them dirty, and order them scrubbed. This involves a ceremony in which some 500 costumed townspeople participate, carrying pails of water on wooden yokes and wielding brushes and willow brooms. The scrubbing is followed by the folk parade and the initial performance of the costumed Klompen Dancers. On Thursday, the children's parade is featured and the week's activities are topped by the Parade of Bands on Saturday. Three hundred thousand people are expected for the parade. The City of Holland is very proud of the fact that it is one of three new entrants admitted this year to the Rose Parade. The theme of their float was "America, Let's Celebrate Tulip Time." It used no tax dollars and though partially funded by the Michigan Bicentennial Commission and other State agencies, for the most part was built through public contributions. # # # JACK FORD FRIDAY, MAY 14, 1976 DETROIT AREA ALL DAY 10:30am Detroit A.M.
