    It was an amazing day, I was an 18 year old cast member who worked in recreational watercraft. Four of us were recruited to be Chinese Mushrooms in the Grand Opening Parade. Starting at 0:17 for a few seconds I can see myself in costume just behind the Marching Toy Soldiers. I knew it was an important day, had no idea how historically significant it was.

    I was there as a 15 yr old trombone player. We played 76 Trombones and the band was 8 wide and the length of Main St. At the hub we accompanied 3000 choir members who sang Wish Upon a Star. I still get teary eyed every time I hear it.
    We are here this week in 50 th anniversary year.

    I know all the characters that you see in the video got makeovers, but still, alot of today's characters need new looks badly as well!!! They haven't seeemed to be doing that for a while.
