The theme for this year's parade at the Mount Pulaski Fall Festival was "Hollywood on the Hill." Participants were asked to design their entries to reflect the theme.

The parade kicked off with the singing of the national anthem and a brief moment of silence in honor of the lives lost nine years ago to the date, as Saturday was the anniversary of the tragic World Trade Center attack.
