Did you see burbank's award-winning float in the Rose Parade.

A

Yeah, it was absolutely incredible: volunteers.

B

Worked tirelessly to prepare the beautiful intricacies that we get to see on TV, but have you ever wondered what happens to the Burbank Rose float after the parade? Hey, burbank's, Walter Lutz has the story.

C

This year's Burbank Tournament of Roses Association float entry, titled Adventure awaits spent its last few days hanging out in the Burbank Central library's parking lot for one last hurray after its award-winning jaunt through the streets of Pasadena in the 134th Rose Parade, it was a chance for parade enthusiasts of all ages to get an up-close look at the float and its fanciful designs and remarkable construction.

C

This year's float was unique in that it had 12 human Riders, all above the age of 55, and each of them participating in a unique Adventure activity from hang gliding to kayaking to even mountain.

D

Biking and we looked at the float early on and we said you know what this would be really impressive if we put real people on here, so it was quite a building challenge of how to make entrances and exits for everybody to safely get on and off. The float, including the hang glider.

C

Stephen Edward takes his float building very seriously, even going so far as to take a hang gliding lesson to research. His singular role on the float.

D

Earlier in the year, I took a hang gliding lesson and ran off a perfectly good mountain and soared in the air for 20 minutes to experience what it's like, and maybe a little bit preview of what I might experience hanging from the float for three hours. It really influenced on how we put the float together.

C

The float is made up of over ten thousand roses, including 13 different Rose varieties, as well as 14 000 irises and over 35 different dry materials, all interweaved in the making the layers of the adventured packed Mountain scene. Amazingly, almost the entirety of these materials will be recycled through the city's green waste program when the float is deconstructed.

C

Now, if you're feeling a little bit sad that you might have missed out on this year's vote, well, no worries, there's plenty of time for you to get involved with next year's book. All you have to do is visit the Burbank Tournament of rose's website burbankrosfloat.com to find out how you can participate year round. The.
