I'll have to do a catch up blog post later, but want to post this now. We are sitting at the outer court yard of The Huntington in San Marino, waiting for our tour group to get here. We took off on our own, driving up to Sierra Madre to see their float and the progress made since we were there as volunteers two days ago. Our job was to cut pink roses and place them in vials. We did LOTS of them. Float making is a stunningly labor intensive volunteer operation spanning who knows how long.
Here are some photos of that day:
Here is one photo of today:
The float will look like this and will be 6th in line tomorrow. The City of Sierra Madre float is one of only very few now entirely funded by volunteer efforts. The rest are funded by corporations.
