In a parade field loaded with crowd-pleasers, the Tulip Time Steering Committee was able to find a way to narrow down the top entries in this year’s festival.

Pella Corporation’s “Mr. I Scream” ice cream truck and Vermeer Corporation’s homage to “Wynken, Blynken and Nod” tied for most original float entries, with Pella Corporation’s entry also given the award for “Wow Factor.”
