Last years' fair was cancelled due to the pandemic, so this year was my first county fair. It was well attended despite the rain events. I helped with the livestock shows. Depending on the workers we had each night, i worked anywhere from the makeup ring to announcing the show. I was able to meet lots of new people and youth of the county. I helped to get the youth ready for their class and also helped one night in the ring. A couple of nights we were shorthanded and i had the pleasure of announcing the show. I had everyone stand, give attention to the flag as we all said the Pledge of Allegiance. I stayed late to help clean and reset the darns for the next day’s show.
