Pies help support Logan County Fair

By Angela Reiners

n Saturday, August 5th, just after the chili cook-off winners are announced in the KC Pavilion,

the annual Pie Auction is held before the same crowd. The pies are made by the best bakers in

Logan County and the auction helps to raise money that keeps “the best and cleanest county fair in

Illinois” going. All funds go to the Logan County Fair Foundation.

This year, the pies auctioned-off raised $2,340.

First up for bid was Sarah Laun’s peach

blueberry pie. It was purchased by Gary Laun

and raised $200.

Carlene Carter’s streusel pie was purchased by

Kevin and Nancy Courtwright and raised $130.
