wheelbarrow woman leads Mardi Gras parade

The leading spirit in the characteristically spirited 2012 Clarendon Mardi Gras parade was the woman pushing the horse-manure wheelbarrow behind the police horses. She raced up the road with her wheelbarrow, scoping manure and throwing beads to delighted children.  For her outstanding effort and example, she has won an Ode Street Tribune Outstanding Public Spirit Award. This prestigious award is given to the resident of the Greater Rosslyn Region who best exemplifies the ideal of public service that the Ode Street Tribune strives to achieve.  We hope that all residents of the region will join with the Tribune in honoring her outstanding example of public service.

Here's some video coverage of this excellent event.
