The Grand Parade

Best Foot Forward ....or have you other ideas???

This year we will not be having motorised floats. We want entries from local residents, visitors to our town, community groups, businesses and individuals. You can either walk the parade route or let your imagination run wild in deciding how you will cover the route. (Scooter, Skates, Wheelbarrows, Prams) Let your imagination do the walking. Bright, Fun, Big, Small, Loud, colourful lets make it a parade to be remembered.

Already this year we have had some fantastic entries including The Wessex International Military Band, a variety of majorette troops,The Dolphin Marching Band,Youth Football Teams, Rickshaws,and lots lots more. We also have a few local businesses and families already entered as groups. Look out for HOWIE !!

The parade is open to all.....so if you are going to be with us on your holidays why not pack a fancy dress outfit and join in the fun. You can download an entry form now..and then just join us on the day. Mums, Dads,pushchairs and toddlers,and not forgetting nan and grandad too. Or maybe you are here in a coach party why not get your group to enter? Hotels could encourage their guests to enter. The more the merrier.
