On New Year’s Day, 13-year old aspiring ballerina Peyton Richardson will ride on a float at the 127th Rose Parade® for Northwestern Mutual, the presenting sponsor for the 2016 Rose Bowl Game in Pasadena, CA.  The theme of this year’s parade is Find your Adventure.
Peyton’s greatest adventure – traveling the world to visit the greatest ballet companies and to take a class with each of their principal dancers – along with her powerful message about not letting leukemia stop her from dreaming big are the inspiration for Northwestern Mutual’s float design.
