There are two 1st place winners in the Cowboys & Cowgirls Division, one boy and one girl. 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners in each division receive a handsome award ribbon. The top cowboy and cowgirl get to ride at the front of the parade in special cars and all other division winners get to walk in the front of their division for the parade. Each entrant gets a ribbon and coupons from local merchants.
