Royal Examiner reached out to Family Fun Day organizer, self-referenced as Crazy Wyllie of C&C Frozen Treats, who, with wife Nina, co-sponsored the 11th annual event that has become a staple of the annual celebration of downtown Front Royal.<\/p>\n

This is what he had to say about this year\u2019s event on Saturday, May 9, 2026:<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, another beautiful Family Fun Day has come to pass.\u00a0 Would love to say thank you to all who helped to make this year\u2019s event a success.\u00a0 Keep an eye out over the next few days for the hand-print paint job on the town trolley,\u201d he told us, adding that, \u201c650 pounds of \u2018Mud Bugs\u2019 were cooked and served to an attendance of about 4,000 people throughout this beautiful day. Looking forward to 2027.\u201d<\/p>\n

So, are we, Wyllie, SO, are we!<\/p>\n

If you like to have fun and learn a little about downtown FR, the 11th annual Front Royal Family Fun Day was memorable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Huck singled out The OG\u2019s for providing quality music throughout the event, as well as all the vendors and informational booths. And along with Wyllie and Nina we give a special nod to Luray-based stilt walker\u00a0Charlene Johnson for her interactions with attendees both young and old, and her special agility with the Hula Hoop.<\/p>\n

We will continue our visual exploration of the event, starting with Ms. Stilt-walker Johnson during some of those referenced interactions:<\/p>\n

Why am I dancing alone, stilt-performer Charlene Johnson may have been wondering neaar the event\u2019s outset. Soon she wasn\u2019t as she involved kids of all ages in her juggling and other fun activities. Royal Examiner Photos Roger Bianchini<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
