The night of July 4 the Loxley community gathered at Loxley Memorial Park for a night of old-fashioned family fun that included food, music and fireworks. Katherine Breeden presented plaques on behalf of the city to those who helped “make our 50th Anniversary Celebration a success.” The recipients were Luticia Wallace Bob Savage, Evelyn Driskell, Evelyn Griffin, Shirley Phillips-Quinn and Charlotte Griffin, Ruth Davis, Danny and Katherine Breeden, Tony Smith, Gary Jackson, Laurie Gruenloh and Barbara Grider. Frank Bracken proudly held the flag for the Pledge of Allegiance (above). Loxley Police Officer Tony Lovell is shown holding Dakota Taylor.
