The 66th annual Healdsburg Future Farmers Country Fair was filled with fun, sun, hard work and accomplishment.
Pine Tree Preschool won the Sweepstakes Award in the Twilight Parade, which featured two hours of bands, horses, cars, trucks, politicians, flags and kids.
The annual livestock auction grossed more than $330,000, all of which goes back to local youth.
The Swan Bros Circus returned for its 25th year of zany, kid-focused fun.
Community groups sold fudge, corn dogs, snow cones, teriyaki burgers and ice cream.
Local schools were off on Friday, so students could participate in or visit the fair, held at Healdsburg’s Recreation Park.
See below for a story of two young fair participants, and for fair results.
