Rose
Parade Float
for 2009
Since 1992,
Lions Clubs International has had a float in the New Year's Day
Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena, California. Two of our entries, in
1993 and 1994, won awards for the most beautiful floats in the parade. But all
entries have been winners, presenting Lions an opportunity to promote our
service activities to people worldwide who watch the float each year.
The Rose Parade is seen by an estimated 400
million people in 85 countries worldwide. The parade is covered by several
hundred domestic and international newspapers. Every major newswire service
features related stories before, during and after the parade.
Lions Float, Inc., a non-profit corporation,
was formed in 1994 to direct the preparation and funding of the Lions float in
the Rose Parade. This is a year-round activity involving the designing,
fundraising and coordinating of volunteer decoration of the float in December.
Lions Clubs International in Oak Brook,
Illinois has provided approximately half of the funds; the remainder is raised
by the Lions of
Multiple District Four (California).
