One of the largest spectator events in the state is just around the corner and community members are working around the weather to prepare their floats for Thursday.
As the storm rolls in, nothing will rain on the Tucson community’s parade—which seemed to be the theme of Tuesday as decorations flew off into the rodeo grounds.
“A lot of it got ruined with the rain today so we’re pulling it off, all the soggy flowers, and putting on fresh flowers and hopefully we can tarp them,” said Carrillo-Gaxiola. “No one else in the country gets Thursday and Friday off of school for the rodeo so they’re like ‘why do we get school off?’, so we’ve been spending these last couple of days going over the history,” Carrillo-Gaxiola said.
