And, just like that, another Greenwood County Fair is in the books. It was a great weekend filled with all types of emotions. From excitement to grief and shock to happiness. The youth of Greenwood County didn’t disappoint. If you were unable to attend the various events, you missed out.

Men’s Health Tip:

As the temperatures climb into the 90s and above, most trees require more water, but more water means more costs. One helpful tip is to modify soaker hoses to save a few dollars. Soaker hoses are notorious for non-uniform watering. Meaning you often receive too much water from one part of the hose and not enough from the other part.

It’s fair week!

The end of July is upon us, which means... It’s Greenwood County Fair Week! This week is bound to be crammed full of events as area participants complete their exhibits for the annual event. Pre-fair events continued last Saturday with the annual horse show. Although there were fewer horses this year, the 4-Hers did great and the event was a success. Congratulations to Hannah Perrier and Jorja Beeman for receiving Grand Champion Gelding and Mare; and Hannah and Henry Perrier for earning high point horsemen in the senior and intermediate divisions.
