Samba Pros Shine in the 2010 Rose Parade
Thanks to all who made the 2010 Rose Parade with Jack-in-the-Box such a great success! It was incredible to see the Brazilian cultural so well-represented by SambaLa in the parade. Every member contributed invaluable time, effort, talent and their own money to make this the super success that it was!
Here is a video of some of the happenings including the parade itself (they are the same video, just different formats):
