Which animal will you choose for your ride on our "Carousel of Spring"? With your help our hospitality weekend could make our Daffodil Festival a dizzying success! We hope you get the Brass Ring! Your ride starts with our "Welcome" at our hospitality room upon your arrival. Friday night is our Grand Banquet, where you will once again be awed by our outstanding Royal Court. On Saturday you will be able to showcase your wonderful traveling floats or marching units in our Grand Floral Parade. This tradition is unique to the Daffodil Festival as our parade proceeds through Tacoma, Puyallup, Sumner and Orting, with thousands of cheering spectators! After a day of parading, Saturday evening will be a relaxing one with a dinner and then on to our Daffodil hospitality room where you will be able to wile away a few hours chatting and reliving your "Carousel of Spring" ride experience. We look forward to your arrival, Karen Baskett and Gentleman Kent |
