The Grand Parade attracted 15 floats, with occupants ranging from the Flintstones to 101 Dalmatians. Best dressed float for the third year running was that of Applethwaite Green home for the elderly. Staff and carers depicted Alice in Wonderland. Best junior entry was won by St Cuthbert's School for 101 Dalmatians; most original float was that of Blezard's Taxis for Frosty the Snowman; and best newcomers were the Windermere Taverners with Mowgli 11. Judges were so impressed with the Windermere ladies tap dancers dressed as Roly Polys that they decided to make up an extra category and award a prize for the most entertaining float.
