Դ’s Rhode Island Tribute Triumphs at Bristol Parade
For the third year in a row, the Դ Orientation Advisors’ float has captured the Best in Parade Award

BRISTOL, R.I. – Among the hundreds of floats and attractions marching in the oldest Fourth of July celebration in America, Դ students once again distinguished themselves via their creativity and ingenuity by receiving top honors in the Bristol parade for the third year in a row.
Their theme, “Great Things Come From Small Places,” brought onlookers a visual journey from Newport to Providence, depicting the landmarks and highlights of the Ocean State, including the Mount Hope Bridge, Newport mansions, Providence skyline, a working lighthouse and real carousel horses.
For more than two decades, the undergraduate Orientation Advisors have joined forces with the facilities staff to construct floats that consistently exceed audience expectations.
