“Arctic Antics” Wins Top Rose Float Design for Cal Poly Universities

The Cal Poly Universities' 59th entry in the Rose Parade will frolic down Colorado Boulevard at 8 a.m. on New Year's Day. The 2007 float concept originated from Thomas Baak & Associates of Walnut Creek, who entered their idea into the universities' Rose Float design contest in February. The company will receive $1,000 and four tickets to the Tournament of Roses Parade for its ingenuity.
