Rose Bowl Float Honors Organ Donation

Thought you might be interested that there will be a float in the Rose Bowl parade tomorrow that honors organ donation.They've done it since 2004, but this is the first year I've seen press coverage of it because <b>The Ohio State Buckeyes</b> are in the Rose Bowl this year (Yeah!!!) and Columbus is doing news coverage on everything imaginable to do with the game. The float has a phoenix rising out of the ashes and pictures of donors on it.Doesn't someone have a tattoo on their back of a phoenix?

I saw the tail-end of that float on TV. I couldn't tell if they were talking about CF or organ donation. Does the CFF have a float? It seems a natural to have 65 Roses included in the parade!

This float was for donation in general. They had riders on the float that were organ, tissue and eye recipients and then some of the donor families.I looked on the Rose Bowl Parade site and found that they quote the average cost of a float to be between $100,000 and $300,00. Wow! That probably would have something to do with why the CFF doesn't have a float, but I agree it's a pretty obvious tie-in (roses, CF, Rose Bowl Parade).Here's a link to a picture of the float <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.donatelifefloat.org/prod/components/media_center/media_kit/rendering_2010.html">LINK TO FLOAT</a>
