Thanks Fentress County...
Before we get into the 2008 schedule we would like to first of all take this opportunity to thank the fine folks of Fentress County who contributed to the winning of Champion of Champions Fair for 2007. It is because of the many, many volunteers, the spectators, the individuals who participate and enter exhibits that made it possible. We actually competed against two other larger fairs for this title and was overhelmed when our name was called out. Actually it isn't ever as simple as having your named called out... They really enjoy keeping you in suspense imagine sitting at a banquet with a few hundred people all of which represent a fair somewhere in the fine state of Tennessee (part of the Tennessee Association of Fairs). You know that your fair is up for this title, but in the same thought you remember you are the smallest of the three fairs. With Fentress County a single "A" fair competing against "AA" Warren County Fair and a "AAA" Wilson County Fair. As you sit there with your fingers crossed, maybe even holding your breath as they begin to describe little details of your hometown fair, with each detail you think, that sounds like us, then you look at the person sitting next to you and you say "we did that" but your mind plays tricks and you don't want to jump to any conclusion. Then the announcer said "this fairs theme was 'High Stepin in 2007' Fentress County Fair is your 2007 Champion of Champion Fair" It was really exciting and nice to see our Fairest of the Fair Katy Bradfield cut through the crowd to accept the that big trophy. We can never think Fentress County enough. As past director Jimmy Johnson always said "it's not a I or me thing it is a we thing" he said it best because this title would have been awarded to someone else without you!
