Uber BIG NEWS…Our Rae has been found !

The Great Tuakau Christmas Parade of 2017…

This years parade for us here at Ray White Tuakau was preceeded by the heinous theft of our Rae right from under our noses outside the front door of the agency.  Seen below at her post on George Street.

So what were we to do? Rae has been a feature of our float and we were more than a little perturbed about what to do. Our Abby had a brainstorm, how about we use a real live sheep in the form of Mango, and spray her yellow???

So we did, and didn’t she look great?

Here she is with Vern on her way to the start of the parade

But Mango wasnt alone, we had her mate and field friend Billy the Huntaway keeping her company along the route…sadly I cannot post a photo of Billy as I do not have one !!

We had a ball making up the float, Abby’s beautiful antique rocking horse took centre stage

And guess what ?? We came 2nd in the Commercial float category! Woohoo.

Thank you Mango, Thank you Billy, see you all next year.

A great team of gorgeous volunteers picked up the brushes and painted with gusto…the kids looked awesome and more importantly, very happy.
