Trivia

• These articulating frogs were created in foam, from a 26 piece mold designed, built and poured by Doug Aberle and Dave Rowe.
• Two more frogs are pirouetting in front of our ballet dancers, the Battle Ground Rose Float Princesses.
• The swampy refuge is decorated with real hemp and moss. The cat tails are made of flax seed and wheat bran and the large leaves are decorated with parsley and onion seed.
• The smaller hippo with BG Bee perched on his nose, is in a pond of fresh blue Iris. His eyes are moving back and forth to see all that is going on around him.
• Approximately 2,200 roses, 1,300 blue iris and 1,500 white carnations were used.
