Parade Script
Please welcome the
Victorian Roses Ladies Riding Society.
This group represents upper-class fashion of the Victorian Era. They not only ride and drive a variety of horses, but they have also designed and sewn their own elaborate dress. They have appeared six times in the Tournament of Roses Parade. These ladies gladly accept opportunities to educate about history by illustrating life in the 1880’s. Not only do they depict a romantic era, but they also raise money for charity. Through fundraising events, the group has raised over $45,000 for local horse rescues.
