Hood River County Fair Returns

The Hood River County Fair returns Wednesday after a one-year absence.  The fair will open in Odell at noon, with the carnival opening at 1 p.m.  One of the highlights of the opening day will be a celebration of Hood River Valley resident Naomi Frisbee’s 100th birthday.  She has been a part of the Odell Garden Club for a number of years, and fair manager Clara Rice says there will be a celebration at 7:30 p.m. on the park stage.  Full-day carnival ride bracelets remain on sale at a discounted price of $25 until 5 p.m. Wednesday.  They are available at the fair office in Odell, Mid-Valley Market, McIssac’s, Hood River Supply in Hood River and Odell, Columbia Bank in Hood River and White Salmon, and Juanita’s in Hood River and The Dalles.
