Luther Burbank Rose Parade and Festival

The Luther Burbank Rose Parade and Festival is an annual festival held in Santa Rosa, California celebrating Luther Burbank and his contribution to the world through a series of events. This festival has undergone changes throughout the years but has always included activities for all ages. In 1994 the parade became a tax-exempt corporation, no longer being run by other civic organizations. It has an annual budget of around $100,000.00 to produce the parade and festival. This is achieved through grants, donations and entrance/vendor fees.〔 The parade is now centered on a theme that changes each year, allowing for the incorporation of new activities, displays and floats.
==Beginnings==
The Rose Parade began in 1894,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=119th Annual Luther Burbank Rose Parade & Festival )〕 then called the Rose Carnival, with the help of Thomas Patrick Keegan and began a rich tradition of celebrating the beautiful landscape of Sonoma County.〔The Press Democrat, Rose Festival Section, May 1, 1951〕 Keegan was a city engineer and clothier in Santa Rosa. He “conceived the moving exhibit of community pride and creativity”〔The Press Democrat, November 7, 2010〕 so many years ago. Brian Keegan, a descendant of Thomas Patrick Keegan, was President of the Rose Parade and Festival board a few years ago. He sought to continue the legacy of his ancestor in bringing civic pride to the community.〔 Brian Keegan still currently serves on the board.〔
In the early 1900s the parade and festival was organized by the collaboration of the Chamber of Commerce and other civic organizations. In typical parade fashion, the participants included various groups atop ornately ordained floats, automobiles, marching bands and note-worthy community members. The floats in the procession included various species of flowers, not just roses. Unlike in present day, the event was not seen as a casual affair. Patrons and spectators alike dressed lavishly to attend the parade and festival.〔The Press Democrat, May 17, 1908〕 The parade and festival was seen as an event of the season in which people came from all around to engage in the rich display of natural beauty of Sonoma County.
