TAKING A CLOSER LOOK AT 2009 HELLDORADO PARADE / BEHIND THE SCENES
COMMUNITY CHEERING:
Driving through downtown with the float, we saw children to the left and to the right jumping up and down, pointing their little fingers at our float and float banner, in turn, parents held up their arms toward us with a long-lasting 'thumbs-up' gesture, along with an unforgettable expression in their eyes - to please, please 'follow through' with this!!!!
Little did they know, that the LVRRS' Founding Chairman was sitting inside the float truck, watching all enthusiastic responses with emotional tears in her eyes, touched and moved by our community's utmost 'vote of approval' and their urgent plea for us to continue with this project, and despite the cruel recession, to this very day we did continue, and we are here to stay.....
HELLDORADO JUDGES:
Helldorado Parade judges shared the public's opinion & voted in favor of the LVRRS float design, to win first place for MOST CREATIVE design in 2009. It was an honor, but, we could not have done it without our loyal volunteers and supporters!
