SPParks extends a heartfelt thank you to the volunteers who participated in Sonoma’s “Road Trip” 4th of July parade. Along with the State Parks truck and mascot, Sonomie, we had 11 “tourists” and each and every one was different and delightful. All in all, we had 18 people (6 from SPParks, 4 from CA State Parks, and 8 from the Sonoma Valley Visitors Bureau) in our parade entry. It was especially meaningful to have a joint entry with the Sonoma Valley Visitors Bureau. We are all here working together to welcome visitors to Sonoma Valley and it was great to collaborate. Thanks also to the talented creatives, Anne, Mike C., Jim D. and others who designed and built our “float”.
