Little Mister and Miss Firecracker 2021
There were five contestants for Yellow Trail Museum's the Little Mister and Miss Firecracker at Friday night's Old Fashioned Fourth. Votes were based on a penny vote system, with each child turning in a decorated jar with their votes. The winners get a goody bag and the honor of leading the decorated bike parade around the square. The money raised goes towards funding future events and museum activities. Kaedyn Pullin was the winner of Little Mister Firecracker, raising $157.36 for the non-profit. Little Miss Firecracker was Quinley Frazier, raising a new record of $443.96. The contest was unable to be held last year; the event was cancelled due to the pandemic. The previous highest total raised was a little over $200.00. This year's grand total of $922.00 was unprecedented. Board member Kathie Clouse stated, "That is just fantastic. That is more than we raised at the fish fry the last time we held it." Well done to all of the participants Kaedyn, Quinley, Carson Lazzell, Lilly Mohler, and Hudson Wood.
