Scope and content
Tired of waiting for the official Daffodil Parade, these kids from the Buckingham Apartments,1001 No. Yakima Ave., decided to stage their own parade on April 8th, 1937. Using dandelions to pinch hit for daffodils, the kids, fully costumed and made up, carried a sign stating "See the Daffodil Parade on Saturday." Ready to start their parade are, front row (l to r), bicycle cowboy Bruce Bowman, Dolores Detlofson, Sharon Lloyd Detlofson and Robert Hagstrom. Back row (l to r), Sonny Gange, Queen Marilyn Powell, Parade press agent Jacqueline Brown, Drum Major Roberta Powell, and parade clown Roy Howell. (T. Times 4/9/1937, pg. 18)
