Citrus Float


The day had finally come where I was able to ride the Texas Citrus Fiesta float. It was a surreal experience. It was so different than last year, the people actually recognized us because of our titles this year. I got to ride in a float with my new friends. We got to lead the largest parade in the city of Mission. It is the parade that the city of Mission is known for. It was so rewarding knowing that the float I was riding in has been a tradition since 1932. It is not many girls that get the privilege of saying that they were a part of the Royal Court and got to ride the float. I felt like it was something to really be proud of. The crowds cheering for us during the parade was so exciting. They know the hard work that it takes to be on the float and they really help us feel happy about ourselves and our accomplishments. Being the lead of the parade and on the float that is recognized by the city of Mission was truly an amazing experience I will never forget.
