Another victim of sorts of the economic recession is the county fair. I recently read a Tribune article which said that most fairs are seeing significant drops in attendance both this and last year.
They are blaming it on the economy.
I have another possible explanation and that would be the cost to get into it. We used to always go to the nearby Kenosha County (Wisconsin) County Fair in Wilmot, about eight miles north of us.
This year, they are charging $8 entrance. If it was $5, I consider it, but definitely not $8. Plus, they used to have big name bands like the Oak Ridge Boys or REO Speedwagon. Now, they just have local acts.
Not only that, but food prices have been jacked as well.

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
