Alan M. Teague, a former mayor of Santa Paula and a leading figure in Ventura County’s agriculture industry, has been named grand marshal of the county fair parade this year.

As grand marshal, the 55-year-old Teague will ride in one of the first cars of the parade, which will be held Aug. 21 in Ventura.

“It’s an honorary position for what he’s done for the community,” parade organizer Bob Pollioni said.
