Dear Friends & Supporters,
Tomorrow (January 1st), our Saving America’s Mustangs 2011 Rose Parade float will be showcased to over 54 million viewers worldwide! We were at judging early this morning and we will find out if we won any of the 20 out of 23 awards that we are eligible for.

Below is a small sample of how amazing our float looks! (Just wait until you see all of the participants on it!)

I also want to thank all the volunteers (Petal Pushers) who spent tireless hours meticulously decorating our float. It looks so amazing! Phoenix Decorating and all the volunteers did an exceptional job! Thank you all so much!

This is such great exposure for the Wild Ones! Please make a point to tune into the Rose Parade on January 1st and give our mustangs the attention they deserve! This is also a great opportunity to see real, GREAT AMERICAN MUSTANGS live! Six of our very own mustangs will be walking proudly in the 5.5 mile parade, celebrating the Rose Bowl and our American heritage! One million parade goers will be lining the streets to get a glimpse at these beautiful, floral floats. We would love to have you cheer us on and wave to you as we pass by.

Also accompanying our float and equestrian unit we will be honoring many great Americans including: wounded veterans, including several from Patriot Paws, as well as our 4 legged heroes from the Military War Dogs Association, and several Native American tribes, not to mention some of our respected Saving America’s Mustangs Advisory Board Members and a HUGE fireworks display!

The parade is televised live from 8am-10am, but please check your local listings to be sure you don’t miss it. This is the BEST parade and we know you will feel as proud as we do when you see us come down the parade route!
