00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:31.199
<v Speaker 1>we have.

6
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Hey, thanks Melody for having me again. So next week

7
00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:40.759
<v Speaker 2>kicks off our twenty twenty six Bedford County Fair. The

8
00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:44.679
<v Speaker 2>fair opens on Friday at four pm and then runs

9
00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:49.119
<v Speaker 2>through Saturday and Sunday, where it will close Sunday at.

10
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:51.719
<v Speaker 1>Six the twenty first, twenty second.

11
00:00:51.399 --> 00:00:55.439
<v Speaker 2>And twenty third. That's right. So we're super excited to

12
00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:58.640
<v Speaker 2>be back this year again at Liberty Link Park. This

13
00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:01.960
<v Speaker 2>will be our second year there, so we are very

14
00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:06.879
<v Speaker 2>grateful for the support from the town to allow us

15
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:10.200
<v Speaker 2>back again. We've been able to add a lot of

16
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:13.920
<v Speaker 2>new features to this year's fair, so we're super excited

17
00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:17.599
<v Speaker 2>about those. To give everybody kind of an idea of

18
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:21.159
<v Speaker 2>what to expect throughout the weekend, Friday, we kick off

19
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:25.519
<v Speaker 2>again at four. We'll have our traditional favorites, the old

20
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:30.400
<v Speaker 2>McDonald's tent, the Midway. We have a really great lineup

21
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:33.920
<v Speaker 2>of rides for this year. We'll have our Home Goods

22
00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:37.560
<v Speaker 2>Pavilion where you can check out all of the Home

23
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:41.040
<v Speaker 2>Goods contest entries throughout the whole weekend, and then Friday

24
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:44.799
<v Speaker 2>exclusively will have the Blue Ribbon Bouquet Bar where you

25
00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:47.719
<v Speaker 2>can go and create a flower.

26
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:50.879
<v Speaker 1>Bouquet that is correct yet job.

27
00:01:50.959 --> 00:01:53.840
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, that's always a big hit, So that's happening

28
00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:57.760
<v Speaker 2>Friday at six. In addition to that, we of course

29
00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:01.120
<v Speaker 2>have a lot of food and craft and that will

30
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:04.879
<v Speaker 2>be there throughout the weekend. Another exciting feature that we'll

31
00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:08.000
<v Speaker 2>have this year is a kid's activity tent. So we

32
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:10.599
<v Speaker 2>kind of played with that idea last year and it

33
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:13.039
<v Speaker 2>was very popular, so we added a lot to that

34
00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:16.240
<v Speaker 2>and expanded the space so that will be geared more

35
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:19.240
<v Speaker 2>towards you know, uh, littler kids who may be not

36
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:21.879
<v Speaker 2>so interested in the rides, but give them something where

37
00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:25.800
<v Speaker 2>they can go and have a quieter hang out while

38
00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:30.199
<v Speaker 2>enjoying the fair. Saturday, we start the fair with our

39
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:34.000
<v Speaker 2>Community Expo, which is for our local nonprofits. That runs

40
00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:37.400
<v Speaker 2>from ten am to three, so you're welcome to come

41
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:39.599
<v Speaker 2>check out those guys that are coming to set up

42
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:43.199
<v Speaker 2>during that time. They'll be up at the Home Goods Pavilion.

43
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:49.000
<v Speaker 2>The Midway open Saturday at noon and then of course

44
00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:53.120
<v Speaker 2>we'll have the Old McDonald, the kids activity tent, all

45
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:59.520
<v Speaker 2>our vendors Saturday. We've got several presenters that will be

46
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.599
<v Speaker 2>at the Old McDonald tent throughout the day and then

47
00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:06.520
<v Speaker 2>a few rocking chair conversations which I personally am super

48
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:07.479
<v Speaker 2>excited I have to.

49
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.840
<v Speaker 1>Tell us about this. Yes, So that's.

50
00:03:09.599 --> 00:03:12.719
<v Speaker 2>Something that we've we've talked, talked about and tossed the

51
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:17.039
<v Speaker 2>idea around for several years. And basically our idea envisioned

52
00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:22.039
<v Speaker 2>behind this would be having some local historians and just

53
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:27.039
<v Speaker 2>community like founding people who could come and share some

54
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:32.159
<v Speaker 2>Bedford County history at the fair. So we've finally put

55
00:03:32.199 --> 00:03:36.080
<v Speaker 2>all that together this year and we'll have Danny Johnson

56
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:41.280
<v Speaker 2>of Johnson's Orchard or Piece of oter Winery. So he'll

57
00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:44.919
<v Speaker 2>be there on the main stage at eleven thirty and

58
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:47.560
<v Speaker 2>that's on Saturday. That's on Saturday the twenty second. Yep.

59
00:03:48.080 --> 00:03:50.199
<v Speaker 2>So if you've never had the pleasure of meeting Danny,

60
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:54.479
<v Speaker 2>he's a wealth of knowledge from of Bedford County and

61
00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:59.199
<v Speaker 2>just a great storyteller. Yep. He's been just chomping out

62
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:01.639
<v Speaker 2>the bit to he wants to he wants to tell

63
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:03.120
<v Speaker 2>me with the story, and I said, I want it

64
00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:04.800
<v Speaker 2>to be a surprise. I want it to be a

65
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:07.560
<v Speaker 2>surprise because I'm going to be front row then tent

66
00:04:07.639 --> 00:04:08.560
<v Speaker 2>of just like everyone else.

67
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:10.479
<v Speaker 1>So he will be great.

68
00:04:10.520 --> 00:04:12.719
<v Speaker 2>And like I say, he's there at eleven thirty till

69
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:17.639
<v Speaker 2>about twelve thirty on Saturday. And then we have miss

70
00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:22.040
<v Speaker 2>Leslie from the Bedford Museum who will be there that afternoon.

71
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:25.319
<v Speaker 2>And then she's got about an in an hour worth

72
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:28.279
<v Speaker 2>of conversation to share about just kind of all things

73
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:31.279
<v Speaker 2>history of Bedford. So I think both of those will

74
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:34.879
<v Speaker 2>be well worth it for all ages to attend and

75
00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:39.480
<v Speaker 2>really adding kind of a different, different feel for the fair.

76
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:42.680
<v Speaker 2>It'll give everybody kind of a chance to sit and

77
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:45.720
<v Speaker 2>relax and listen and still be educational, but really dig

78
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:49.639
<v Speaker 2>into that Bedford County history roots to the reason we're

79
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:52.680
<v Speaker 2>doing why we're doing this, Yes, our community, Yes very much.

80
00:04:52.720 --> 00:04:56.000
<v Speaker 2>So that's been super important to me to try to

81
00:04:56.040 --> 00:05:00.240
<v Speaker 2>bring in all avenues of our community and have a

82
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:02.879
<v Speaker 2>little piece of something that represents all of that at

83
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:05.480
<v Speaker 2>the fair. So I'm really excited to have them and

84
00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:09.160
<v Speaker 2>hope that they have the support so that maybe that will,

85
00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:11.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, kind of cue somebody else who was thinking

86
00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:15.160
<v Speaker 2>about it the story right, so to have the interest

87
00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:17.800
<v Speaker 2>and see you know how like impactful that was, and

88
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:21.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean they'll join us in the future. And then

89
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:26.560
<v Speaker 2>Sunday we'll have Midway that opens at one o'clock, fair

90
00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:29.879
<v Speaker 2>grounds opens at noon, rides will start at one and

91
00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:35.439
<v Speaker 2>of course food. Sunday we have our Community Talent Show,

92
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:38.399
<v Speaker 2>so I'm very very excited about that. That starts at

93
00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:42.560
<v Speaker 2>one thirty. So at the conclusion of our talent show,

94
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:46.480
<v Speaker 2>we then will move into a fun foam dance party.

95
00:05:46.839 --> 00:05:47.560
<v Speaker 1>For the kids.

96
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:50.800
<v Speaker 2>Uh so we're excited about that. I think one of

97
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:53.480
<v Speaker 2>our biggest editions this year is going to be our entertainment.

98
00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:56.560
<v Speaker 2>So typically in the past we've always you know, included

99
00:05:56.560 --> 00:06:00.480
<v Speaker 2>a band. This year we've got a lot up to

100
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:04.319
<v Speaker 2>kind of keep the stage busy all day. You know,

101
00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:07.560
<v Speaker 2>families are busy, so we're trying to make it so

102
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:09.560
<v Speaker 2>at any time that they come to the fair there's

103
00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:12.319
<v Speaker 2>gonna be something they are going on, rather than you know,

104
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:16.279
<v Speaker 2>just once right that in the day. So as far

105
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:21.160
<v Speaker 2>as entertainment goes, on Friday, we've got Cameron Smith who

106
00:06:21.160 --> 00:06:23.120
<v Speaker 2>will be playing from six to eight and then we'll

107
00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:27.040
<v Speaker 2>wrap up the evening with line dancing with Angela, so

108
00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:30.439
<v Speaker 2>she's a line dance instructor and she's bringing all kinds

109
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.360
<v Speaker 2>of fun for us, and you know, kind of have

110
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:35.120
<v Speaker 2>an interactive piece, so a little something different, but I

111
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:38.839
<v Speaker 2>think that'll be super popular for all ages. And then

112
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:43.319
<v Speaker 2>entertainment for Saturday, we kick off with mister Johnson and

113
00:06:43.399 --> 00:06:46.560

114
00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:52.240
<v Speaker 2>move into New Standard, which is a local bluegrass band. Yeah, so,

115
00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:56.879
<v Speaker 2>so they'll be there at one thirty. After them, we

116
00:06:57.040 --> 00:07:02.160
<v Speaker 2>have Miss Leslie with another rock can share conversation. At

117
00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:05.279

<v Speaker 1>Star City Rockerska.

120
00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:12.720
<v Speaker 2>So that's a full lineup for the day. On Saturday,

127
00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:37.759

128
00:07:37.879 --> 00:07:40.759
<v Speaker 2>something different well, and then of course, like I say,

129

<v Speaker 2>Burk's Hill. Okay, we'll also be a secondary shuttle location.

153
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:07.639
<v Speaker 2>And then we have a small parking lot at the

154
00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:10.360
<v Speaker 2>entrance to Liberty Lake that if you, you know, happen

155
00:09:10.399 --> 00:09:12.519
<v Speaker 2>to be there, the bus will pick up on the

156
00:09:12.919 --> 00:09:17.039
<v Speaker 2>way in. So we have two shuttles that will be running.

157
00:09:17.679 --> 00:09:22.240
<v Speaker 2>We're very grateful Bedford Baptist Church and then LifeWise Group

158
00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:25.960
<v Speaker 2>they have sponsored our shuttles for the weekend, so we'll

159
00:09:25.960 --> 00:09:30.200
<v Speaker 2>have those running. Yeah, so that's fantastic and those are

160
00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:32.639
<v Speaker 2>again the shuttle service is free, so if you're not

161
00:09:32.679 --> 00:09:35.080
<v Speaker 2>able to find parking on site, feel free to go

162
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:38.279
<v Speaker 2>to one of our shuttle locations. They'll be making rounds

163
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:40.159
<v Speaker 2>all all through the fair, so you don't have to

164
00:09:40.159 --> 00:09:42.679
<v Speaker 2>be there at a certain time. Once you get park

165
00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:44.919
<v Speaker 2>just hang tight and they'll pick you up, bring you

166
00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:47.639
<v Speaker 2>and be ready to take you back when you drop yep,

167
00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:48.440
<v Speaker 2>when you're ready to go.

168
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:53.559
<v Speaker 1>So the tickets for the rides, that's an extra fee,

169
00:09:53.639 --> 00:09:56.240
<v Speaker 1>correct and you can buy them when you get there

170
00:09:56.399 --> 00:09:57.320
<v Speaker 1>or online.

171
00:09:57.440 --> 00:10:01.360
<v Speaker 2>All all wristbands and ride tickets are purchased on site

172
00:10:02.279 --> 00:10:07.120
<v Speaker 2>our website Bedford viafair dot org. We've got a section

173
00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:12.200
<v Speaker 2>on there from our midway provider that provides ticket and

174
00:10:12.279 --> 00:10:15.879
<v Speaker 2>risk band pricing and information you're not caught off guards

175
00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:19.080
<v Speaker 2>correct yep. And then we'll have a big share on

176
00:10:19.120 --> 00:10:22.360
<v Speaker 2>our social media pages at the start of next week

177
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:25.480
<v Speaker 2>to kind of give everybody some information to prepare as

178
00:10:25.480 --> 00:10:28.679
<v Speaker 2>far as that goes, that's something worth checking out. There's

179
00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:31.919
<v Speaker 2>some uh specials and discounts so at certain times in

180
00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:34.600
<v Speaker 2>certain days, so if you know you've got people that

181
00:10:34.639 --> 00:10:36.360
<v Speaker 2>you know are coming to ride, that would definitely be

182
00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:39.159
<v Speaker 2>worth you know, checking in to. He's got some family

183
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:46.639
<v Speaker 2>packs available, there's military and active duty discounts, ticket packs,

184
00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:49.440
<v Speaker 2>those sort of things, so definitely worth checking out, like

185
00:10:49.480 --> 00:10:50.960
<v Speaker 2>I say on our web page, or you can keep

186
00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:53.320
<v Speaker 2>an eye out on social media next week for for

187
00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:54.120
<v Speaker 2>that information.

188
00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:57.320
<v Speaker 1>And guess my last question is for the home goods

189
00:10:57.440 --> 00:11:01.279
<v Speaker 1>is the deadline has it been not yet? Okay?

190
00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:06.320
<v Speaker 2>So miss Carolyn who is our home goods Yes, she

191
00:11:06.519 --> 00:11:10.080
<v Speaker 2>will be at the park next week starting on Monday

192
00:11:10.120 --> 00:11:14.360
<v Speaker 2>at noon, so she'll be accepting entries for our home

193
00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:18.639
<v Speaker 2>goods contest until the nineteenth, so she'll be there each day.

194
00:11:19.600 --> 00:11:21.399
<v Speaker 1>I believe her hours are.

195
00:11:21.360 --> 00:11:26.519
<v Speaker 2>Noon to seven each day to get those entries you

196
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:29.639
<v Speaker 2>may enter on site or if you visit the web

197
00:11:29.679 --> 00:11:35.440
<v Speaker 2>page and have entries for three or less categories, there's

198
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:40.240
<v Speaker 2>an online submission there and then your your entry itself

199
00:11:40.279 --> 00:11:43.399
<v Speaker 2>would just be dropped off at the home Goods contest

200
00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:46.279
<v Speaker 2>to begin the judging, which would start on Thursday.

201
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:48.519
<v Speaker 1>And what kind of things for people that may not

202
00:11:49.279 --> 00:11:51.879
<v Speaker 1>that may be new to a county fair. What what

203
00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:55.039
<v Speaker 1>are home goods? What? What are these people presenting then

204
00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:56.120
<v Speaker 1>getting judged.

205
00:11:56.320 --> 00:12:00.519
<v Speaker 2>So we have a wide variety. I think some of

206
00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:03.679
<v Speaker 2>our most popular areas of the home goods contests are

207
00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:11.080
<v Speaker 2>our photography and art. It all also has categories for baking, canning.

208
00:12:12.000 --> 00:12:18.240
<v Speaker 2>We've got several chocolate cake contests. Yeah, and then of

209
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:23.440
<v Speaker 2>course your your produce. There's some uh produce baskets that

210
00:12:23.519 --> 00:12:27.120
<v Speaker 2>are judged, you know, on quality and appearance. We go

211
00:12:27.240 --> 00:12:33.159
<v Speaker 2>into honey, so there's generally a honey contest, and then

212
00:12:33.279 --> 00:12:37.120
<v Speaker 2>she's got several that are geared more towards kind of

213
00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:41.879
<v Speaker 2>youth friendly, so those are worth checking out. Those those

214
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:44.720
<v Speaker 2>kind of vary, but there's definitely categories for both youth

215
00:12:44.799 --> 00:12:50.039
<v Speaker 2>and adult. I think I covered most of the basics there.

216
00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:54.960
<v Speaker 2>We've we've got some crop categories which go into hate

217
00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:58.440
<v Speaker 2>quality and those sort of things. So if if, if

218
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:02.000
<v Speaker 2>you're a producer or an artisan, it is certainly something

219
00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:05.679
<v Speaker 2>worth checking into because miss Carolin, Yeah, yeah, and miss

220
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:08.240
<v Speaker 2>Carolyn really puts a lot of time and effort into,

221
00:13:08.559 --> 00:13:12.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, bringing quality judges in and putting together that

222
00:13:12.320 --> 00:13:15.480
<v Speaker 2>home goods catalog to be very informative and very descriptive,

223
00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:18.200
<v Speaker 2>so you know, you're you're able to see exactly you know,

224
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:21.559
<v Speaker 2>what to expect and and how your your entry is

225
00:13:21.559 --> 00:13:24.720
<v Speaker 2>being judged. So that's worth worth checking into. She's got

226
00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:28.559
<v Speaker 2>the catalog uploaded onto our web page. And then there's

227
