Despite a cancellation of all outdoor activities associated with Thursdays in Pella this week, a contest to award Little Miss Firecracker and Mr. America was held in the Pella Community Center.

Araya Schakel and Colby Wackerly won the respective awards.

This week’s Thursdays in Pella activities have been moved to a bonus night on Thursday, August 3rd, with the theme of “Yee Haw.” The KNIA/KRLS Lil’ Big Red Radio is broadcasting from every Thursdays in Pella this summer.
