FAIR WEATHER!
It's Labor Day. The unofficial end to
our summer season. But take heart! We
are now in the midst of the County Fair
Season! I spent a good part of Sunday at
the Wyoming County Fair near Tunkhannock.
It's a week long celebration featuring the
county's agriculture heritage. Young people
from throughout the area, most members of
4H organizations, show off the livestock
they've raised, hoping to win a Blue Ribbon,
then selling their animals at auction for
money mots use to help with their college
educations. There are all kinds of attractions
to be seen including an excellent rodeo!
There's food of all kinds, much of it home
made, vendors of all sorts, and, of course,
a midway filled with run rides. But these
fairs, with their entertainment, also serve as
community gathering places where families
from throughout the area and nearby get
together to enjoy life together. This us
Fair Season, Fair weather if you will.
Find one near you. Get out and enjoy
it with friends and family and, likely,
all your NEWS will be good!
