"We had the schools, community groups and business represented in both the Parade and Carnival and the park was booked out with stallholders," Bob said.
"We knew we had a winning formula with a focus on what the Parkes area had to offer."
Bob went on to thank sponsors Australian Mines and Inland Rail and also Parkes Shire Council and SES for their support.
Parkes East School won the best school in the parade with the Garden Club being judged Best Community Float and Parkes Toyota the Best business Float.
