Float Building

This is Ken who modified his trailer with a frame and chicken wire.

This is Nancy, Ken's wife cutting up plastic table cloths to stuff in the chicken wire.

This is Kathy putting  the plastic squares in the chicken wire.

The pictures in place. This is the parade's theme, yesterday, today and tomorrow. The picture on the left is one of our Church that burned down in 1918, the middle picture is of our current Church and the picture on the right is the drawing of the building we are planning to build on our property on 127th st.

 This is me posing with yesterday. No, I wasn't there when the Church burned in 1918, but I am the oldest of the float group.

Nina and Karen working on the mosaic Church window that will frame a cross that Ken is making.

I will have more pictures of the finished float and with the children dressed as firemen riding the float. The parade is Monday. St. Matthew will again have the Brat Shop, our Church is right at the end of the parade route and sell lots of hot dogs and brats.
