The Annual Atwater 4th of July Parade was a great success for the Atwater Relay for LIfe®. Instead of walking in the parade this year, it was decided to enter a float. Maria Williams, event co-chair, headed up the parade committee and what a wonderful job she did!

Maria created a mini-campsite on a flatbed trailer with mini-people (kids). It included at tent, table, benches, an ice chest, and hay. Then everything was decorated in red, white, blue & purple. Along with the U.S. Flag flew the Celebrate. Remember. Fight Back flags. Kathy Flaherty, Team Development, Dennis Johnson, Logistics, and I, Mission Delivery, carried the Celebrate. Remember. Fight Back. sail banners in front of the float. Led by Beatrice Johnson, Logistics, a team of volunteers accepted donations from parade spectators collecting almost $300. Great job Maria!
