Everything was coming up roses on Saturday in Montrose as Charlie Chaplin handed roses to those walking along Honolulu Avenue.
The Valentine’s Day tradition caught some shoppers off guard as Charlie Chaplin [performer Audrey Ruttan] walked up to them, dressed as his iconic “The Tramp” character, and handed them a rose. Kids pulled their mothers over to make certain they got the bloom for Valentine’s.
This was part of the community outreach efforts of the Montrose Shopping Park Association.
