PARADE OF LIGHTS

Greyhounds Take Over Ft. Worth Streets
Friday, November 24, 2000

Ok, so this headline really didn't appear in The Fort Worth Star-Telegram, but we gave it our best shot. On November 24th, about 30 greyhounds and their people marched as part of a "lighted walking unit" in Fort Worth's annual Parade of Lights. This is GU's fifth year appearing in the Parade of Lights. Our theme this year was All Over The World - Save an Athlete, Adopt a Greyhound. Both greys and their people had to be lighted - that is wear battery-powered holiday lights.

The photos that appear below show our numbers...and our lights. Click on a photo to see an enlarged version.

The parade was a wonderful experience. Our greys demonstrated what greyt companions they really are to the cheers and applause of the crowds.

Special thanks go to Susan and Mark Lemon, and Gail Clarkin for organizing GU's participation in the Parade of Lights.
