A lavender mannequin with mylar hair was used as a mailbox. The mannequin had been used in a fashion display at Montgomery Wards external link and was discarded a few months later. It seemed a shame to allow such an odd mannequin to remain non-utilized.

The back part of one booth was covered with a lavender colored sheet of plastic. Notice how the cold night before and early morning have not yet relaxed the plastic enough to hang flat as it would later when the day became hot.

Balloons by Balloon Magic decorated part of the marchers in a parade formation that resembled a walking rainbow. One of the symbols of the LGBT movement was the rainbow.
