On Dec. 9, 2019 Westminster Mayor Dominick announced the winners of the Mayor’s Cup contest and the Miracle on Main parade.




At the Dec. 9, 2019 meeting of the Westminster Mayor and Common Council, Westminster Mayor Joe Dominick announced the winners of the annual Mayor’s Cup contest and the annual Miracle on Main Street parade winners.

According to a Dec. 5, 2019 press release by Sandy Anderson, the Westminster Main Street manager, “The Mayor’s Cup is a long-standing contest to encourage downtown Westminster businesses to decorate their storefronts and office windows for the holiday season. The Mayor’s Cup recognizes the best overall display. The winning business’ name is engraved on the Cup each year, which is proudly displayed by the winning business.

“This year, 17 businesses offered eye-grabbing entries, making it difficult for Mayor Dominick to select a winner from all the outstanding entries. Below are the businesses selected by Mayor Dominick in the various award categories: Mayor’s Cup Recipient/Best Overall – Flip Yours Fitness & Wellness; Best Kid Friendly – Flowers by Evelyn; Best Business Promotion – LUX Boutique; Best Non-Traditional – Ting.”

Mayor Dominick also announced the winner of the Miracle on Main Street parade. According to information from a Dec. 4, 2019 release from Abby Gruber, the Westminster Director of Recreation and Parks, “The annual Miracle on Main Street Parade was held on Saturday, November 30, 2019 at 5 p.m. This year, the parade boasted nearly 50 entries ranging from walking groups, car clubs, marching bands, and floats.

“To encourage well-crafted and brightly lit parade entries, the City offers a trophy and a $100 cash prize in three different categories: Spirit of the Season, Best & Brightest, and Main Street Champion. To help evaluate and fairly determine the winner in each category, judges are selected from the local business community. The judges are provided with a list of all parade participants, their corresponding parade numbers, and a list of criteria to aid in evaluating the entries.

“The 2019 Miracle on Main Street parade winners are: Spirit of the Season, Carroll County Veterinary Clinic; Best & Brightest, Shelter Systems Limited; Main Street Champion, White Pine Paving Inc.”

During the awards presentation on Monday evening, Dec. 9th, Mayor Dominick, said in part, “It is my pleasure this evening to announce the winners of the 2019 Miracle on Main Street, Electric Holiday Parade. A panel of three judges consisting of local business owners assessed each parade entry on theme, detail, and brightness in the following award categories: Best & Brightest, Spirit of the Season, and Main Street Champion.

“All winners receive $100 gift card, a trophy, and of course bragging rights.

“First I would like to recognize Margaret Welliver, Lenny Mills, Dave Strevig, & Randy Rickels accepting on behalf of Shelter Systems Limited for their winning entry that earned the award for Best & Brightest

“The next award goes to Lynn Wimmer & Check Cregger accepting tonight on behalf of Carroll County Veterinary Clinic for their entry that best reflected the Spirit of the Season.

“And last but certainly not least will I would like to recognize White Pine Paving as the Main Street Champion. Unfortunately representatives from White Pine Paving could not join us this evening but staff from the recreation and parks department will see that they receive their award.

“A big thank you to all of you and to all of our 2019 parade entries; your creativity, time and attention to detail make this parade a proud Westminster tradition. The Miracle on Main Street Electric Holiday Parade could not exist without your support and participation.

“And speaking of support on behalf of the City of Westminster I would like extend our sincerest gratitude to Mark Degasperi, owner of Interstate Battery for his steadfast support of this phenomenal community event. Every year Interstate Battery provides power sources for all electric parade entries plus Interstate Battery staff members are available onsite at parade line up and disbandment to help safely illuminate and breakdown the floats.”
