Roswell 2021 Youth Day Parade

October 12, 2021

In recognition and support for Down Syndrome Awareness Month, GiGi’s Playhouse Atlanta, for the second year in a row, participated in the Roswell Youth Day Parade, with the theme Stronger Together.  That theme fell right into our GiGi’s wheelhouse.  GiGi’s Playhouse has been promoting the stronger theme and a message of acceptance for all since it’s inception.  We had our Teen-Tastic group and members of our Junior board ride our float, exhibiting feats of “strength”, and distributed bags of candy to all of the well wishers lining the route.

Our float, float riders and our message of acceptance represented the playhouse wonderfully…. THEY WON THEIR CATAGORY for the second year in a row.  What a way to show Atlanta that our participants vibrant contributors in all aspects of the community!

We can not wait to defend our title next year!
