6/27-/6/30/15 I’m on the Float Committee

(Show Low, AZ)

Everyone is talking about the 4th of July celebration coming up.  The town of Show Low has a H U G E parade and people come from all around.  I’ve heard the main street, Deuce of Clubs will be lined with over 10,000 people.  There will also be a parade here in Juniper Ridge for all those who don’t go to town.

I have joined the Float Committee for the parade downtown.  I’ve attended several meetings to iron out the details for the logistics for parade day.

The theme of the day is Home of the Brave and we’ll decorate our float in red, white and blue to commemorate the day but we’ll also promote Juniper Ridge at the same time. 

The float we’ll use is actually the trailer used by the park to haul away tree limbs, bush prunings,,,  anything green which will not be taken to the landfill.  I’m assured it will be thoroughly cleaned before we have to get in it.

I attended one session of decoration making this week.  Sandy Myer, the lady who took us to Paris is in charge of the decorating.



Sandy & Bev working on signs that will depict activities here in Juniper Ridge.

This is basically a storage room for all things crafts, sign making, decorating for holidays etc.

On Monday, the 29th at Monday Morning Coffee I was a bit surprised to see this.

This is Lynette.  She and her husband Doc, are funeral planners and live here in the park.  They also hold the Christmas in July celebration so she was dressed today to promote that.

As you can see by their sign they put the FUN in FUNerals.  They truly are a fun couple.  They gave away these door prizes at the Monday Morning Coffee.

They even had George, dressed as the Undertaker give out the entry forms for the raffle,



So this ends the month of June.
