This next week is the beginning of the Healdsburg Fair. And well in Healdsburg... it is quite possibly the largest local attraction all year. People go crazy for this little country fair, Friday is even a "local holiday" and so there is no school. And by little, I mean they hold the dang thing on the football field. There are animal barns and food booths and to me that's all ya really need at a fair! The cool part is all the food booths are community organizations, so no huge random fair carnies selling greasy corn dogs.
I've mentioned that my program is small (less than 100) and at the fair I will have about 35 kids with animals. I have mostly enjoyed all the kids and animals this spring. It's been a huge change for me, moving my mindset to a May fair instead of a July/August fair. Now, I still have kids showing at our county fair in July and August but really just a handful of veterans that are pretty low maintenance.
I have been pretty impressed with most of my kids this year. Some have really just gone above and beyond with their animals. There are always some kids that don't really meet their potential but I feel like most have really tried. I'm pretty excited to see how the week goes... Let's cross our fingers for no drama!
P.S. Went to the Giant's Game last night! Had so much fun! In good company too... We got Fedoras as the giveaway... And of course my fat head was too big! We got hulk hands too! Pretty awesome!
