(Clearwisdom.net) Grand Junction, Colorado is one of the major cities in the Rocky Mountains. On December 4, 2004, Falun Gong practitioners participated in the Christmas Parade of Lights held in this city. The practitioners' contingent was led by the Tang Drum group, and the graceful exercise demonstration on the float won a round of applause and cheers. Many people took pictures of practitioners on the float. Some people put their palms together in front of their chests ( a gesture of respect) to practitioners, and some repeatedly said, "Thank you for coming!" People took the initiative to take Falun Dafa introductory information and materials, and some followed the movements of practitioners while watching them demonstrating the exercises on the float. A western practitioner plans to teach the Falun Gong exercises at a library in Grand Junction a week after the parade to help more people learn about Falun Dafa.
