REVELERS ENGJOY GOOD 'CLEAN' TIME AT PARK

DIGGIN' IT: One mud volleyball player said that mud allows players to "run and leap and dive without fear."

COOL TREAT, HOT DAY: Two young visitors to the Jackson Jaycees Fourth of July celebration cooled off with snow cones from the MDA booth.

FRIENDLY CRITTER: Deer and other animals were eager for human touch (and food) at the petting zoo.

CLOWNING AROUND: What July 4 picnic would be complete without a clown?

HIS OWN ENTERTAINMENT: Despite the presence of carnival rides, clowns, mud volleyball, singers, classic cars and numerous other diversions, one young man found entertainment in an old-fashioned way.

CLASSIC CARS: Members of the Capaha Antique Car Club had a full regatta of mint conditioned beauties on display and competition Tuesday. More than 220 vehicles were entered.

PONY RIDES: Another staple of the summer picnic is the pony rides. A number of youngsters took advantage.
