Tractor-Driving Queen
Tractor-Driving Queen
Miss Rockbridge Regional Fair 2022, Sofia Fleming, as a sixth-generation American farmer, felt that it was natural to drive her family‘s decorated tractor in the Happy Birthday America Parade in Staunton on the Fourth of July. The creativity and unusualness of a pageant queen driving a tractor caught the attention of the crowd and the judges. She won the Extraordinaire Award - The Most Outstanding Parade Entry. The deadline for entering this year’s Miss Rockbridge Fair Pageant, scheduled for Aug. 5 at RCHS, is July 28. Information can be found on the fair’s website or by sending an email to [email protected]. (Valerie Fleming photo) 07/19/2023 12:00 AM

BANG!
After the Balloons Over Rockbridge festival kicked off the Fourth of July activities in the area last Saturday and Sunday, the fun continued on Monday, July 3, with the Freedom Food Festival in Lexington, and the Children’s Bike Parade in Lexington in the morning and the music and fireworks at Glen Maury Park in the evening on July 4. The Party Crashers (in photos at top of page) entertained the crowd at Glen Maury Park, while the East Nash Grass (in background at right) was one of three acts to perform on the Main Street stage during the Freedom Food Festival. Brett Ross with Devils Backbone (below) was among the volunteers hard at work during the festival. The Children’s Bike Parade was led by Uncle Sam (second row from bottom, right), while an ensemble performed for the parade outside Trinity United Methodist Church (at bottom right). Face painting (bottom left) awaited the parade participants at W&L’s corral parking lot at the conclusion of the parade. (Stephanie Mikels Blevins and Mary Woodson photos) 07/12/2023 12:00 AM
