His career began at age eight and includes standout work on Stargate SG‑1, 3rd Rock from the Sun, and guest appearances on many fan‑favorite television series.

David is also a proud member of our Mountain Community and owner of the Bigfoot Café in Pine Mountain Club. We are honored to welcome him as the Grand Marshal of the 58th Annual Fiesta Days.

David DeLuise

Honorary Mayor

Born on Flag Day in 1924, she grew up across California during the Great Depression and later joined the Cadet Nurse Corps in WWII. A misdialed phone call led her to her husband, Bud Blanchard, and together they raised three children in Shadow Hills before living in Maui and eventually settling in Frazier Park, where they ran The Hen House gift shop for 18 years.

In retirement, she became a dedicated community volunteer, leading exercise classes, participating in AARP and the Senior Room, and enjoying weekly card games with friends. Cherishing independence, laughter, and the people around her, at 102 years old she continues to live life with remarkable spirit — and she still drives.

Mary Blanchard

Honorary Sheriff

Corey Hansen has spent most of her life in our mountain community and has attended Fiesta Days since childhood with her grandparents, Dale and Doris Hansen. This year is especially meaningful, as the parade she rides in carries her grandfather’s name.

A former English teacher and now principal of El Tejon School, Corey has transformed the campus into a true community school. She has expanded electives, created real‑world learning opportunities, written grants for off‑mountain field trips, and built after‑school programs ranging from welding to parent classes. Her focus is always on keeping students engaged and showing them what’s possible.

Under her leadership, El Tejon was recently named a California Distinguished School, an achievement she proudly accepted on behalf of the community she loves.
