The woman in background on the far left is Vickie Peck Tarleton. Margaret Barnard Bradley is in the sailor dress and saddle shoes. Jimmy Brownell is next to her. Betty Brownell is marching and has her face turned away. Dot Pinny is to her right.
This float was constructed by the Class of 1939, which was Kathryn ''Kitty'' Pulsifer Eaton's class. Joy Eaton, Kitty’s daughter, is the little girl on the float dressed as Little Red Riding Hood, and 'Chippewa', the dog, played the part of the ferocious wolf. This float won 2nd prize in the 'most artistic' category.
