Introducing:

Here we are, waiting anxiously for the parade to start! It felt like forever and we thought we were going to be the last float to leave the park, but when we finally hit the streets of Oneonta, everything went great. I can't remember a time when Main Street was so crowded. A heartfelt thanks to all who marched with us and to the children who made signs to carry with the OWL.

Thanks to Tom Pondolfino and Brian Rivard for building the skeleton (which should be strong enough to last forever!) and to all of the painters: Nancy, Nathaniel, Beth, Rachel and Jacquie. Much credit goes to John and Andrea, who turned their garage into an OWL roost for a month. Special thanks go to Janet Sutta, for artistic direction and bringing the OWL to life!
