Rediscovering home: The county fair

Nothing has changed during my time away as much as the Mineral County Fair.

The fair was little more than a few animals, photographs and baked goods (tasty as they were), when I grew up in Superior. The 4-H building (now called the Fair Building) was more familiar to us as a place for dances.  A band would rent it, and the fun would begin.  

How the fair has grown, led by the Lions Club’s Go for the Gold Rodeo. Saturday evening, folks were parked all the way up Fourth Street to Clark Conrow’s corner. My class celebrated its 50th reunion during the fair so I did not get to see as much as I wanted. The fair serves as a homecoming for many former residents.
