SCOOTER BABES

Come Have Fun With the RHPC SCOOTER BABES

  “Basically, we joined figuring "surely there is something we can do"  It didn't take us long to see a role for the scooters.  We escort the riders to, during and back from the parade.  Sometimes we block traffic to get the group through an intersection all together.  Sometimes we ride at the rear to keep traffic away from the horses.  In parades we head out first making sure the crowd is up on the curve so the horses aren't too crowded  (safety issue).  We have fun with each other and with the crowd.  We are also an extra set of hands helping out....sometimes we hand out water to the gals already on the horses (and take the empty bottles away from them), we hold onto horses for whatever reason, we gopher here and there.
    Bottom line, we have fun.  We have fun with each other, the crowd and the riders, walkers etc.  This is a good way to have friends share the parade experience together...one rides a horse, one rides a scooter.  We use electric scooters because they are easy and safe to transport in the back of our cars.  Our insurance agents call them motorized skate boards.  They aren't expensive but they work.”
