The Rotary Club announced that it has selected Frank and Jo Holland Chadwick as the Grand Marshals of this year’s parade.
Frank Chadwick has been a great member of the Caribou County community for nearly eight decades. Born in Soda Springs in 1946, Frank has dedicated time to service and businesses starting in Grace, Idaho. He married his wife, Jo Holland, in 1969. He graduated from Idaho State University, later serving with the US Army at Fort Benning, Georga. In 1971, they returned to Soda Springs where he built a family and local businesses, including Chadwick’s Department Store, Security State Bank, and Cedar View Supper Club.
Frank has spent many years involved with the Rotary Club, Elks Club and Lions club. He later developed The Chadwick Foundation to provide grants and collegiate scholarships for our local youth. He has spent many years with the Caribou County Hospital Foundation serving as Treasurer and a sitting board member.
He is a wonderful father of three (Nicki Jo, Matthew and Garett) and seven grandchildren (Jackson, Connor, Trey, Emmy, Leah, Logan and Kayla).
When contacted, he wanted to express his gratitude for the recognition and honor of serving as the Grand Marshal for the 2025 Fourth of July Caribou County parade.
