Central Washington State Fair 2006

A 2006 Central Washington State Fair attendee presents a nostalgic and introspective look at our Yakima Fair, and community Fairs in general. Read about the sights, sounds, and smells of this year's Yakima Fair.

"Some people say, why go to the Fair year after year?  If you’ve seen one, you’ve seen ‘em all.  I beg to differ.  Yes, many things stay the same, and some things change too much.  The reason to attend a Fair regularly is to take a walk down memory lane; to validate, with one’s presence, the idea that community matters, and that THIS community matters."
