Locals and winter visitors enjoyed the annual Pioneers Day Parade in Wellton Saturday morning.
Many people lined the streets as well as participated in the event.
The floats included everything from musical entertainment, horse riders, veterans groups, old-fashioned cars, and high school groups.
One local said he enjoys the Pioneers Day Parade because everyone comes out in the tight-knit community.
He said he remembers coming to almost all of the annual parades for the last 40 years.
"Pioneer Parade is a parade where most everybody knows everybody that's been here a while. And now of course we have lots of winter visitors, which we appreciate them coming down," said Melvin Brock, a long-time Wellton resident.
A celebration that included games and food at the park followed the procession.
