This year's festivities start at 10 PM. 
This is a non-alcoholic family event

"...We bring the possum to start the event and then the
blessing and then we bring out the queens of the last ten years and show
them off...and the church singing of songs and then the drop."

Clay

Brasstown Brigade readys themselves on the hill overlookin Clay's Corner for the blessing	At first we thought it was Rickie Bobbie, but last years Queen brought in the Possum and took a few minutes to strut her stuff
Clay adds to the occasion with his infamous jokes	Unfortunately, former contestant Miss Donkey Farm passed on this year, her final request was to lye in state at the Possum drop.
Once she heard the music, it was a REAL revival	No, she's not levitating boys, those are happy feet!
The Possumtron show 12 minutes to go!	"The Reigning Queen 'Little Miss Brasstown' readies herself before the pageant" She went on to be a Judge in 2006 & 2007
"Close to Midnight"	Clay gazes at  the big screen and  the throngs of people who came to ring in 2005 at Clay's Corner
