We won 1st place in the parade!




An exciting parade was enjoyed by thousands Saturday in downtown Wilton under pristine blue skies. The event: The Annual Wilton Blueberry Festival! We were one of 170 units to participate in the longest parade in Maine. Our float consisted of "Ma and Pa Blueberry from Wilton love their new Sunshine Pool" complete with a swimming pool being enjoyed by huge 8 foot balloons decorated to look like blueberries! Jeff drove the Sunshine Pools van which hauled the float. We had 7 kids dress with 5XL blue t-shirts stuffed with balloons to look like blueberries walking down Main Street! We also built a huge balloon sculpture that looked like a giant sunshine on the back of the float. What a great day!
