The absolute best. It's like, "The World's Fair" you may have read about from last century, but local, and better. Imagine all of your friends, neighbors, and everyone that is cool, awesome, and kind; and they have a talent competition for everything in the world. Like everything in the world. Now. The competition is fierce, but the competitors are not. Everyone is just cheering for everyone else. It's like Heaven. The energy is immaculate. Picture this energy. These people are excited to share all of this with you, they are the best hosts in the world, and made this experience outdoors/indoors to accommodate everyone in the safest space possible. That's the vibe. Its a zoo, a museum, a rodeo, a magical garden, a concert, a magic show, a science show, a food convention, and any other hope and dream you can imagine in this mystical space. There are Pokemon. There is a carnival. They have a Gravitron. It may be a Carnival ride. It may be an actual portal through time and space. I'm not even sure. They also have a Ferris wheel. A merry-go-round. The list goes on. Are you in the market for a high quality, and reasonably priced t-shirt? They have them there also. Did you not a bring a bag for your new shirt? They have free ones. You can also purchase a handmade one from a local vendor. I went with a fanny pack to wear in the wilderness doing cool Grange Fair stuff to prepare for next year's competition. Fairground? These grounds are more like a field of battle... a battle...
Read moreTook the 2 youngest grands up to the fair for the day. We had a good time, and it was very hot in the bright sunshine..🌞 We walked thru all the animal buildings, (goats, sheep, cows, rabbits, ) etc. Very healthy livestock. We ate lunch outdoor, under a shady tree. Had fresh hamburgers ,fries, pierogies, & cold drinks. We saw the goat show, cow exhibit, judging show. We saw the "hot" dog & piggie races too. Kids went on carnival type rides..🎡🎠🎢🎪 They even got cotton candy & caramel apples too.. Met alot of nice folks up there. They made a few kids crafts too while we were walking around.The exihibit booths had unique creations too... All in all, a fun day.. See...
Read moreGreat night at the Grange Fair, which is back for the first time since 2019. This is a fantastic low key event, filled with family fun, and free except for parking. Parking, while not cheap, helps pay the Fair's expenses, so it's well worth it. We partook in the annual chicken dinner, walked through the live animal barns with our very young grandson, and watched the tractor parade. We also looked at all the exhibits off vegetables, flowers, baked goods, honey, and all the rest (too many to list here). It's an old fashioned farm show, and we'll be back again next year. A little hokey? Yep. And...
