This year marks the second year that the three intrepid reporters with THE EQUITY will be covering the Shawville Fair.
When I first got the job as editor of THE EQUITY, just about the only thing in the Pontiac I was familiar with was the fair.
I came to my first fair in 2004, just before the start of my senior year in high school.
A friend of mine had spent a good chunk of his youth in the Pontiac, particularly Shawville, and had been telling us about how fun this fair was.
A few of us were doubtful. After all, by that point we had grown out of attending our local country fairs where we grew up in Ontario.
Despite our doubts, we hopped into our cars for one of our first roadtrips on our own.
Needless to say, our expectations were nowhere near reality.
