We won first place in the category of 35ft+ boats in the San Pedro Boat Parade. The staff really pulled together to get an award winning boat float put to together. Our float included a 16 ft lighted Christmas tree and a 10 foot tall Reindeer complete with red nose and over 3500 green lights.
Boat Captain Antonio, Accounting Clerk David, Executive Housekeeper Sara, and Maintenance Stanley were some of those who worked hard on the float.
Chief of Maintenance John and Boat Captain Chris making some final adjustments to the generator to ensure that all 6000 lights had power.
I must admit, when Elder (concierge) and Jesus (Personal Assistant to the General Manager) told me they were going transform a roll of chicken wire and some PVC pipe into a reindeer I laughed and told them I didn't think it could be done. But I stand corrected. Their reindeer was amazing! I'll think twice from now on before doubting what our staff can accomplish.
The members had a great time riding on the boat in the parade.
Boat Captain Antionio's family joined him for the parade.
