What a show!

The North Country Fair took place June 19-22 in the Driftpile River Valley. There were many performances and so many sights to see. The fair, held since 1979, brings thousands of people to the region. The all-genre outdoor music festival is held in celebration of the summer solstice and boasts four stages of bands playing music. Delicious food, craft vendors, interesting workshops, and children’s activities, ccompleted the fair.
