2019 Grand Marshal
Patti Tupper
On any given day in Shelton over the past 25 years, you have likely run into Patti Tupper, our grand marshal, engaged in - or more likely, in charge of - some important community event or effort.
As a former Chamber President, she championed business interests and flower baskets. She was named Citizen of the year in 2004 and Volunteer of the year in 2011.
As past President of KristmasTown Kiwanis, you have likely run into her collecting gloves, hats and school supplies for Shelton kids. She also has taken great pride in organizing Holiday Magic and the Christmas parade every year.
Patti was well known as Shelton's favorite bank manager until 2001 when she and her husband Al started Tupper's Floor Coverings. They sold their business in late 2017 and now she is spending even more time giving back to our community, including Mason County Veterans.
