Schoharie County Sunshine Fair — Local services in Town of Cobleskill

We had a tremendous experience! The staff is friendly and helpful and there's that "small town" atmosphere that one doesn't find at the bigger fairs. Mannerly farm children grooming and showing their prized animals. The best, hands down, pancakes at the local fire company food stand.
