By all accounts, including this one, the Southwest District Livestock Show and Fair Parade Tuesday evening was longer and better attended than last year’s. 

There were floats by local companies, churches, football teams and cheerleaders. Homecoming royalty from Hope and Spring Hill High rode atop showpiece cars and trucks. The Hope High School band marched and played and many fire engines joined the procession. 

Judges selected winners in three categories:

Queen's Division

1st Jessie Thompson

2nd Madalynn Ward

3rd Dacey Faulkner

Open Division

1st Smiles of Arkansas

2nd Junior Auxiliary

3rd Grannies Babies

Junior Division

1st Spring Hill Homecoming

2nd Hope ARC Pre-K

3rd Garrett Memorial Christian School

Below is a sampling of sights from the parade as it made the intersection of Elm and East Third:
