AND THE WINNERS ARE.... This was another very difficult year for the judges! The panel of ten found it extremely difficult to narrow their choices down to the Top Fifty, let alone the Top Twenty. We want to thank each and every krewe member for going above and beyond this year with your creative costuming and floats! There are so many other contestants who should be recognized, and we want to explain how the judges narrowed down the field. Starting with entries truest to the theme, Mardi Paws- Live from the Red CarPET!, they take into account the creativity of the overall entry paying particular attention to the dog costumes, escort costumes and float, and how they all work together. It doesnt matter if you enter as one person and one dog, or ten people and ten dogs; they are looking for that special combination of uniqueness and creativity when selecting the winners. Congratulations to the Winners below, and to ALL the wonderful entries we saw at the parade this year!
