2009 Dewey Christmas Parade Winners

The 2009 Dewey Christmas Parade is now history.  Our theme was "Fairy Tale Christmas".  The weather was cooperative, the floats were fantastic, and it was a well-attended event.  Kids got to sit on Santa's lap at the Dewey Hotel prior to the parade.  Each child got some goodies and a stuffed toy.

There were nearly 100 entties in the parade this year, probably one of Dewey's largest.  The quality of the entries was unsurpassed!  We should be very proud of our community and the people in and around Dewey who take the time to put an entry together for the parade.

Judging of the parade is a point system based on the float's use of the theme, lights & music, and overall Christmas spirit.  The judging was tough!  Here are the 2009 parade winners:

COMMERCIAL:  1st Place - Bar-Dew Floral; 2nd Place - Monday's Wrecker

NON-COMMERCIAL:  1st Place - Dewey Public Works Authority; 2nd Place - Gold Wing Road Riders

RELIGIOUS:  1st Place - Dewey 1st United Methodist Church; 2nd Place - Bluestem Baptist Church

YOUTH:  1st Place - Dewey FFA; 2nd Place - Dewey Head Start

Congratulations to the winners, and thanks to everyone who entered!
