Huntingdon County Fair — Local services in Smithfield Township

The fair itself is a great time, but the people that volunteer (they do volunteer, right? because god forbid they actually pay these people) to run the gates and direct traffic are the rudest people I've ever encountered.

They’ll finish the conversation off with the kind of facetious “thank you very much” that would make a saint want to scream.

Again, I really hope they don't pay these people, because they aren’t worth the sub minimum wage dollars...

First time at this fair. It is a great time with rides, games, farm animals, exhibits, (a few will take you back in time) . Many merchants selling cool stuff. Some are free (like chip clips, Frisbee, magnets) They also offer food trucks with just about anything to satisfy your hunger and ice cream as desert. Homemade lemonade, soft pretzels etc. They have a derby too. It's a great place for the family. Another great year at the...
