It was a sunny, hot Saturday afternoon in Hillsboro's Shute Park. The perimeter was lined with textile and craft vendors, while the smell of smoke and tortillas wafted over the food carts. Some community members took refuge in the shade found at the edge of the park. Others positioned themselves directly in the center of the park with their sunglasses and hats, umbrellas open over their folding chairs. And then the parade began.
