PASADENA, Calif. (AP) As its centennial year begins, Oklahoma will have quite a presence during this morning's Rose Parade in Pasadena, California.

The parade's opening show will feature 20 dancers from Oklahoma City University, accompanied by the 150-member Oklahoma All-Star Band.

The band, which will include high school musicians from across the state, will lead the parade after the opening show.

Two Oklahoma floats also will be in the parade. Governor Brad Henry will ride on one of the floats, which has been dubbed ``Oklahoma Rising.''
