Object Description
Photograph of a white parade float going by as a crowd in the background looks on and stands in front of buildings. The base of the float is white with thin green trimming along the horizontal edges, as well as white streamers facing the ground. On its side, the base reads "Pan Arcadian Federation of America", with the first letter of all words except "of" colored in red, while the rest are colored in blue. On top of the base is a florally-decorated stand, and on top of it is a person standing on top of a white horse and waving at the camera as they wear a traditional Greek outfit. Standing behind the horse and above the base is an arch surrounded by floral figures as well as several people standing around, waving to onlookers while wearing traditional Greek outfits as well.
