The Funnest Float of All!

The 2017 Westerner Parade was outstanding in so many ways. Perfect weather, great support from the community, and a fantastic lineup of 136 floats! The Grand Award went to Blue Grass Nursery, Sod & Garden Centre for this spectacular “living” display.
Click here for a list of all the award winning floats. While all the winning floats were very worthy winners Todayville thought there should be one more category of awards… The Funnest Float of All!
Yes… “funnest” is a legitimate word! As long as we’re using “fun” as an adjective we’re OK. Besides, “The Most Fun Float of All” just doesn’t roll off the tongue as well.
Here are our choices for the funnest float! Or for those of you who have trouble with using “fun” as an adjective.. Here are our choices for the most fun floats in the 2017 Westerner Parade.
Hats off to the people from RBC and The Phone Experts who partied on the Heart & Stroke Foundation “Big Bikes”, Dance Magic for dancing magically, the world’s first Nuclear Free Roller Derby, Master Rim’s Taekwondo “Board Breakers”, of course The Shriners who are always parade favourites, and finally to Red Deer’s Country Pride Dance Club who whipped up excitement through the entire parade route!
