THE TEAM of MTG volunteers at this event was led by Creative and Performing Arts
Working Group leaders Russ and Sandy Rosen. Three volunteers led the MTG entry
carrying a banner with our snowflake logo and the words ‘More Than Gold – Radical Hospitality.’ Next came a group of dancers, then a vintage red truck with a drummer, a sound
system and a fiddle player, along with four string musicians. Following behind
were approximately 80 volunteers clad in white T-shirts with a big, bold ‘More Than Gold’ logo.
The reaction was noticeable as hundreds of people along the parade route joined
in the dancing and singing. One of the parade organizers commented, “What a great way to end the parade!” Another said the MTG contribution was the highlight of the parade.
One of the many parade watchers asked, “What is More Than Gold all about?” As it was explained to her, she said, “Oh, so the Christians are banding together for hospitality? That’s great!”
