Maple Leaf Parade

Wow, what a day!? We had an awesome time at the Maple Leaf Parade this morning walking in the parade.? All the guys that put up the float did an awesome job building our stage (with trussing) and cafe (with tables and chairs).? Aaron Stockton, Forest Park’s media director (former Carthage tech director) was the brainchild of a float that would give people an idea of our church with a “different” kind of float.? We didn’t want to be just like every other float in the parade.? We were a real hit heading down the road with our live “show.”? We handed out a TON of “experience the difference” cards and expect to have a really good day tomorrow with lots of guests!? Here is a youtube video of the parade on television:

The embedding is turned off on the YouTube, so here is the link to the video.

I am so proud of our team!? They did an awesome job with everything from the construction to the smiles on their faces on the parade route!? It was cool to hear some good props from the hosts on the telecast.? Great job Forest Park Carthage!? You guys rock!
