Etter Folketoget: Ordføreren taler
The mayor, mr. Vallersnes, speaking

Noen sier det var lite folk i byen under folketoget. Det var i hvert fall langt mer slunkent i rekkene under det etterfølgende arrangementet på Rådhusplassen enn etter Barnetoget i formiddag.

Russetoget er vel ikke hva det engang var. I år hadde de satset på å kombinere toget med en innsamlingsaksjon til Balkan - men det virket som om publikum flest tok det som et av "moro"-innslagene. 

Ettermiddagsværet var skiftende, med noen kraftige byger sent på ettermiddagen. men alle togene ble skånt for regn av betydning.

English:
May 17, we have 4 main processions in Haugesund. at 7AM "Morgentoget" (Morning), at 10AM "Barnetoget"(Children / Schools), at 3.15PM "Folketoget" (organisations) and finally at 5PM "Russetoget" ( 6th. formers, student ending high school).

People say it was less people compared to normal during the "Folketoget", as you can observe on the picture above, shot during the following "come together" on the Town hall square. 

The 6th. formers had their traditional "Russetog", also ending at the town hall square. They tried to combine the procession with collectin money for Balcan, but did not seem to succed.
