We happened to be in Bariloche the weekend of their 109th Anniversary Celebration, so got to watch the parade and see the entire village come to el centro for local food and music. We were impressed that while every day care and preschool through primary school walked in the parade, the honor of being first to parade past the stand of dignitaries and cheering community were the handicapped children and their parents. There were no fancy floats needed to represent the priority of the good people of Bariloche: the children, their community's future, took center stage.
