[Carol]

MOE 365 just participated in it's first parade:

You can't really see the robot in this picture, but it was on back of a flat bed truck, moving it's arm and running a minibot. The Spirit Catcher mascot is just out of the picture on the right, which drew a lot of attention. Green mints were thrown to the crowd along the path which drew even more attention!

One nice benefit was that several politicians who were in the parade stopped by to look at the robot, including the governor of Delaware. (It's a small state; the local parades almost always has the governor, senators, and lone representative marching in them - especially in an election year).
