Description
This float was called "The Court of Childhood" and was dedicated to the spirit of youth. The queen of the float, Jean Floy Thomas, is seated at the top looking down from a throne with an arch made by a rope of flowers. There are fourteen other children other than the queen and all on the float are dressed in white. There are also what appear to be three fake doves sitting on branches at the front of the float. Crowds of people are watching.
