The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

DAYTON - The Columbia County Fairgrounds has been full of hustle and bustle this week, get­ting ready for this week's county fair. This year's theme is "Sew It, Grow It & Show It at the Fair."

Open class and exhibits will be displayed in the Pavilion and Youth Building

The fair runs Friday through Sunday. Friday night's feature is a motocross event, followed by a street dance on the Midway with the band Vintage.

Saturday will be the 4-H BBQ and the Live­stock Sale during the day. Saturday night's big event is the Jackpot Rodeo followed by a street dance on the Midway with the band Whiskey Creek.

Sunday's special event is a Dayton favorite: the demolition derby.

Of course there are all the regular fun Fair things to see - the 4-H/FFA still life exhibits in the Pavilion and Youth Building, the animals raised by 4-H, FFA and local residents. And of course, lots of fun and food on the Midway.

See the fair schedule on Page 5. And we hope to see you at the Fair!
