In case you missed it, TakomaDogs' float took second place this year to a bunch of chickens! OK, so it was a really clever bunch of chickens, but still.... The prize of $100, given by the parade committee, will be used to offset the costs of building this year's float.

A special thanks to the kinetic sculpture people, creators of Poultry in Motion who took first place, for loaning us some of the parts that went into the dog park float. Hopefully our mini dog park float will no longer be The Only Dog Park in Takoma Park!
