45 - 1946 Chevy Truck 3rd Place - Antique Vehicles |
|
Please Welcome Jay Brown and his1946 2-ton Chevy Truck. This truck was built in Oakland, and spent its entire life working in the Livermore and Central Valley. Under the hood is a 1955 six cylinder engine with lots of early 1950s vintage hot rod parts. It’s capable of hauling 5 tons, but spends most of its energy just running errands around the Bay Area. It's still used daily.

46 - Cactus Corners Youth Square Dancers 1st Place - Amateur Float |
|
Three Cheers for the red, white and blue! The Cactus Corners Youth Square Dancers present a slice of our history, square dancing - the American folk dance. From the settlers crossing the plains, to 4th of July celebrations in town squares, to modern-day hoedowns, square dancing is an American tradition. These dancers are youth from all over the Bay Area from age 7 to 19 years old. Their caller and instructor is Ed Kuidis.

47 - Tri-Valley Cares 2nd Place - Novelty Unit (Senior) |
|
Here we have Tri Valley Cares. Their parade entry illustrates
the danger they see in transporting nuclear bomb cores on public highways from
New Mexico to Livermore for testing on a diagnostic machine at Livermore Lab.
They believe that safer alternatives exist. The machine could be sent to Los
Alamos instead of trucking the bomb cores here. A small group of Livermore
residents founded Tri-Valley Cares more than 30 years ago and they've
participated in the Livermore Rotary Rodeo Parade nearly every year since 1983.
You can find information at their website at
