The 157th Wayne County Fair: food, entertainment and more

BY SARAH CLARK

The smell of fair food, the sound of rumbling rides, and the sights of loveable livestock will all be here soon as the dates for the Wayne County Fair (Aug. 2-10) quickly approach on the calendar. Vendors are busy setting up and preparing for the long, eventful days, and the coordinators are all planning the activities to ensure guests have a memorable time.

There will be grandstand events everyday of the fair, which include the Demolition Derby, the Woodsmen Competition, Best of the Eagles, The Luongo Brothers, Terry Lee Goffee (The World’s Greatest Johnny Cash Experience), the “Monster Truck Freestyle,” fireworks, and more. All grandstand activities

pay-one-price admission, which includes free parking, free rides, and most grandstand shows for $10. This price excludes food, drinks, midway games, and the grandstand shows that cost extra. There are also season tickets available, however, those exclude rides. Senior Citizen Days are just $5 per person on Friday, August 2, and Wednesday, August 7 for those 62 years of age or older.

There will also be livestock shows throughout the entire length of the fair, as well as 4-H shows and contests.

The 157th Wayne County Fair will host a large variety of activities and fun for families to enjoy at an inexpensive cost. Whether it is the rides, shows, the food, or the animals that fair goers enjoy, it is guaranteed that they will enjoy the fun.

Exploring history at the Wayne County County Fair

BY SARAH CLARK

The Wayne County Historical Society will be unveiling their new historical exhibit: their milk bottle collection. At first, the collection was kept in the museum but now it will be showcased at the Wayne County Fair for the attendees to see in the exhibit.

The museum shows different divisions of farming between the years of 1870 and 1930. The Wayne County Historical Society will be showcasing

exhibits illustrating an old Blacksmith Shop, farming equipment, and even a kitchen that reflects the history of Wayne County.

“Even though you might not use these particular tools today, they still want to see that history kept,” Director of the J.B. Park Farm Museum Carol Dunn said. As she explained the 1920s farmhouse kitchen exhibit, Dunn noted the reusable tools and containers within

the kitchen, and how less waste was produced back in that time period. “It was a hard life then, too,” Dunn added.

Another new attraction this year is the Farmer’s Daughter Boutique.

Chairwoman of the Park Museum Nancy Kinsman explained that John Jubinsky funded the construction of the new addition, and the items that will be sold are donated from members of the community and collected

throughout the year. All money that is made from the items goes directly to the Wayne County Historical Society.

A historical milestone has also been achieved as the 4-H, formerly known as the Wayne County Penn State Extension, in the Wayne County area was created 100 years ago. An award called “People who make a difference in Wayne County Agriculture” will be given out to the 4-H extension.

The artifacts that are preserved at the J.B. Park Farm Museum will allow those who love history to explore a world that can be told through historic items of Wayne County, and the sales of the Farmer’s Daughter Boutique will also support the Wayne County Historical Society in their efforts to preserve the past that others lived. “I feel that you can’t go forward if you don’t understand where you have come from,” Dunn said.

The quest for the best fair food STORY AND PHOTOS BY ISABEL BRAVERMAN

The Wayne County Fair offers exciting rides, fun games, live music and entertaining shows. But there’s one thing that people come back for again and again: the food.

Classic fair foods like funnel cake, corn dogs and the blooming onion have become staples in American cuisine. Anything that can be deep fried or served on a stick is fair game.

But what about those offerings that aren’t in the forefront of our minds when we think of the fair? The Wayne County Fair has a variety of food stands, offering regional favorites like pierogi and fresh corn on the cob, as well as locally made ice cream.

As the Wayne County Fair rolls through town this August make sure to stop and smell the funnel cake.

While most people flock to the variety of fried foods at the fair, a classic choice like a BLT sandwich and corn on the cob is one way to try and stay healthy.
