A fun time was had by all as the Village of Alexandria celebrated their annual 'Fun Days' from July 16-20. The festival was highlighted by contests and games, great homemade food, rides and dozens of activities including the annual parade.

Commissioner Tim Bubb, and fellow Commissioners Doug Smith and Mark Van Buren were honored to be the judges for the annual Little Miss Fun Days contest on Wednesday evening. Some 14-little girls' ages 5 to 7-years, and all 'beautiful', were judged on poise, appearance, stage presence, and their ability to answer questions from the 'friendly' judges. Caroline Liggett (see above photo) was crowned Little Miss Fun Days, and was featured in the Saturday parade.
Congratulations to all the participants, and the dozens of family members and friends who were on hand to support them. Former Alexandria Mayor Jim Jasper was the master of ceremonies, and Councilwoman Naomi Compton spoke for everyone when she introduced the program and talked about the important of family and community in the lives of today's youth! Also, congratulations to Fun Days Chairman Syd Kean for a great job!
