Ventura County Outwalkers at the 131st Annual Tournament of Roses Parade

Eight women from Ventura County, including two from the local National Association of Women Business Owners Ventura County (NAWBO VC) chapter, joined 100 outwalkers in the 131st Annual Tournament of Roses Parade. The marchers walked alongside the Pasadena Celebrates 2020 float titled, “Years of Hope. Years of Courage,” commemorating the 100th year celebration of the 19th amendment granting women the right to vote. The outstanding float with the powerful message took home the coveted Theme Award for most outstanding presentation of the parade’s theme, “The Power of Hope.”

NAWBO Ventura County members, Dawn Dyer and Brenda Terzian were among the 100 (mostly women) marchers and were joined by Ventura County’s Marni Brook, Tiffany Emhoff, Barbara Bellfield, Karen Fraser, Ladeane Taylor, and Riley Wagner.
