individually designed, flowerful hats. |
We built a float to represent a church with a beautiful
stained glass window. |
Our Music Director, Michael McCurtis, leads us
in song as "the guys" push the float
carrying Mama and Michael.

The Solstice parade took many hours of planning
and constructing. The city supplied the materials
but the choir provided the labor for our float. There
were too many "cooks in the kitchen" for
the sewing, stapling, and the paper projects so I
joined the one or two who were constructing the float.
That was my very first experience using a saw. As
a single new home owner, that turned out to be invaluable
knowledge. The choir provides new friends, a great
singing experience, and many beautiful surprises. |

of America in New Orleans but didn't take a camera.
If anyone has photos of that great event, please let
me know. |
