Friendly Frontier Days Scheduled for May 26

Step back in time to celebrate the frontier roots of Delta Junction. The 4th annual Friendly Frontier Days sponsored by the Delta Chamber of Commerce is scheduled for May 26 and everyone is sure to have a rip-roaring good time. One of the biggest events of the day is the popular pig kissin’ contest. Place your vote today! Three lucky people will get the chance to smooch a very cute pig that is after they catch them. Pig Kissin’ voting cans are located the Buffalo Diner, Delta Library, IGA Food Cache, Frontier Pull Tabs, Granite View Sports, Mt. McKinley Bank, Tiki Tanning & Nails, Wells Fargo Bank, Calico Cow and Clearwater Lodge.

Kids and adults alike can take part in the Frontier Costume Contest so get dressed in your favorite frontier character and come on down. There will be many kids events including a pet parade, sponsored by Durham Reality, gold panning area sponsored by Salcha-Delta Soil and Water Conservation, face painting and duck pond with the DHS Soccer team.
The ever-popular hayrides sponsored by Friends of Delta Agriculture, can be enjoyed by everyone of any age. Can you throw an axe and hit a bulls-eye or use a cross cut saw? It doesn’t matter whether you can or not because it is just a whole lot of fun trying at the Lumberjack contest sponsored by the Friends of Delta Agriculture. The contest is open to both men and women 18 years or older. There will be a practice session from 11a.m. to noon and then the competition begins at 1 pm.

Get ready for a big laugh, Rozzo the Clown will make an appearance sponsored by Peterson’s Auctions and Appraisals and you never know what Rozzo is up to.

My goodness the fun does not end there there; will be music, DJ Jack Carlson and the 9th Army –Jammin’ Salmon Dixieland Band will entertain through the day.

And, finally if you are hungry join us for a cookout with hamburgers, buffalo burgers, brauts, hot dogs, coleslaw, bean, chips and then enjoy some homemade ice cream from the Shaw Creek Dairy. Yum, Yum! What a day!

So mark your calendar and get ready for a day of fun in Delta Junction. If you are interested in volunteering please give Dawn a call at the Delta Chamber of Commerce office at 895-5068
