August 28th was the annual Gilford Old Home Day Parade! What a perfect day for the thousands of people that gathered down town Gilford, NH to see all the floats, fancy cars, and of course a special appearance by Miss Winnipesaukee and Miss Weirs Beach 2011. My sister queen and I won first place out of all the parade participants. A great smile, eye contact and a piece of candy for the judges was our trick to winning the award.
