Page 4 2023 LOGAN COUNTY FAIR LINCOLN DAILY NEWS JULY / AUGUST 2022 2023 LOGAN COUNTY FAIR Food trucks and vendors line the midway and there are people who will come to the fair simply to eat, and eat, and eat! The carnival is always a great place to catch shots of happy children and adults as they play the games of chance or skill and ride all the rides they can possibly fit into an evening at the fair. Others will be there for the fair pageant, the 4-H scrambles night, the Wooten Rodeo, tractor pulls, the Demo Derby, and of course the country music concert on Saturday night featuring Tracy Byrd and Chris Cagle. And, before the fair officially begins on Tuesday, there is still a lot of activity that occurs. The harness racing on Sunday and Monday is very popular, and some of those 4-H judging events are held on Saturday and Monday. Another fun part of being at the fair, is seeing who we see, and the question of the day has to be “Did we see YOU there?” We know there are many who will attend that are our friends and neighbors, and if their pictures appear in Lincoln Daily News, all the better. Here at LDN, there are several who will be at the fair daily. Of course Karen Castelein and Nila Smith are seasoned fair goers and will be out there as much as possible this year. Tag teaming with Karen at least part of the time will be LDN’s newest Advertising Sales Representative Chassidy White. We will also have several others who are representing LDN at the fair, with notepads and cameras in hand. Look for Lesleigh Bennett, Matt Boutcher, Heather Gaule, Stephanie Hall, Jay Hodgdon and of course our seasoned reporter Angela Reiners, to be out and about throughout the days ahead. At the office, Devyn Fry and Jeff Wyles are well prepared to take and translate judging and competition results into our annual magazine that will go online as soon as possible. Coverage of the fair will be posted in the daily editions in the form of individual stories, photo albums and slideshows. Then later in the week, Devyn and Jeff will start compiling the daily coverage into magazine format that will be available in Lincoln Daily News for perpetuity. Here at Lincoln Daily News, we like to say that we are not just recording news, we are recording history, and recording the history of our Logan County Fair is one of the greatest pleasures we have.
