The Elwood City Strawberry Festival is an Elwood City celebration that takes place annually, first appearing in How the Cookie Crumbles. There are many different events during the festival, including a parade.
Key Participants[edit]
Ed Crosswire, Mr. Haney, Mr. Ratburn, David Read, The Parade Float Club (specifically D.W. Read, Muffy Crosswire, and Binky Barnes) are participants.
Thora Read has extensive knowledge of The Strawberry Festival. She says that all of Route 3 used to be strawberry fields. Now, David Read cooks for the parade while he and Thora introduce the parade to D.W. Read. It was revealed by Grandma Thora that the festival had always been David's favourite holiday. She had also said that there were always as many strawberries as you can eat.
D.W. Read has an idea of a Float for the parade. This float was built after D.W. schemed her way into The Parade Float Club. David Read had described it as "the biggest holiday of the year" until D.W. started asking grand questions about presents at Christmas, fireworks at 4 July, or a parade similar to Thanksgiving. He then changed it to "Well, it's the biggest holiday this week."
Mr. Haney rides atop a sixty foot tall fake tree while Mr. Ratburn is inside an enormous strawberry cake. Both floats proved disastrous.
Muffy Crosswire also has a longstanding history with The Strawberry Festival. She enters a prize winning baking contest. Her previous entry of Strawberry Cookies drew controversy when a citizen commented that Ed Crosswire was a judge for the contest. Ed sat out one year while Arthur, Francine, The Brain, and noticeably Binky provided ideas for new cookies.
Muffy now sells the Strawberry (with Banana) cookies regularly. They were previously named "Muffy's Scrumptious Snackeroodles", but then changed to "Muffy & Friends".
