Rusty Watkins, dean of student services at Campbellsville University, pulls his son,
Caleb, in the parade. Caleb won a first-place trophy in the children’s category. Caleb
was supposed to be in the Children’s Parade, which got canceled due to rain, so Caleb
got to ride in the “big” parade. His mom, Megan, is helping pull the “church.” (Campbellsville
