Hollidazzle parade

The Clinton County Skatepark Association did it again. We all joined together to put on an interesting display for the illuminated parade. The Guinness Book 2009 2010 World's Largest Skateboard was all lit up for a "Disco Christmas" with illuminated Skaters skitching along with the giant board. We couldn't help but to humor the Wilmington PD a little by pulling the Giant Skateboard with the Durango with a Police beaken. Ironically, the police didn't find any humor in the display and wouldn't even wave to us. We all had a great time. We got two really awesome "shout outs" during the parade over loud speakers about how we should all work together to help get these kids a professional skatepark. It was awesome. Then we made a wrong turn and made our own parade "the Giant Rogue Skateboard parade". I was very proud of all skaters for making the best of a bad situation. Everyone pulled together, stopped blaming one another for the mishap, and started directing traffic with their illuminated skateboards. We all got the giant skateboard through the tiny, traffic jammed side street without any harm to the skateboard or any other parked cars or moving passing cars. Even though we had a few who wanted to abandoned ship we all pulled together and accomplished an awesome task.....Kudos to all who were there.
