The rain didn’t dampen the spirits of these CUPE Members at the Gold Cup and Saucer parade in Charlottetown . The theme was summertime on the Island. Our CUPE PEI float included quintessential island activities with a campfire and our rolling green pastures, sand on the beach and our beautiful ocean with a lifeguard protecting public services. A special thanks to Phillips Auto Sales who generously lent us a truck to pull the float and Good Guys Auto Glass for donating space to work on our float.
