Have you been to the fair yet? If you have driven by, you have
probably caught the scent of some of the best livestock in Logan
County. And if you have ever been down to the barns, you know we have
some of the best kids in the state, who have worked long and hard to
get the chance to showcase their talent. We are proud of you. Well
done.
And if you noticed, we took a few photos of flowers today. They are
quite stunning. Lots of artist talent. You need to browse through soon
--
they won't hold up in this heat.
There are hundreds of things to see and do at the fair. Come out and
chat with friends and support the best of the best in Logan County!
