Welcome to our photo album of Junction City's unique and continuing events.
 It's been said that a picture is worth a thousand words (450, accounting for inflation), so that's what you'll find here. You'll find its also worth about a minute of download time, so please be patient!

Some of the stories here here are regular events in Junction City (like the Light Parade) and are updated each time they occur. Others (like the day we moved the original Junction City jail) are one-time events. So grab yourself another cup of coffee or some bottled water and enjoy!

The 2008 Light Parade JUNE 5, 2010 - Function 4 Junction
This was the year the Function almost didn't happen! Almost 40 days of nearly solid rain threatened the Show'n Shine (always held before on the football field which was now a muddy bog) and the popular Cruise. Driving very expensive cars or standing in the rain was not going to happen. But the day of the Function dawned almost clear with no rain in the forecast. So, once again, the Function was a fabulous, overwhelming success!
