Greens Creek Community Fair Oct. 9, 1923

Greens Creek Fair to be Held on Oct. 9 . . . Premium List Folders Distributed. Much Interest Evinced

Approximately $200 are being offered in premiums for the Greens Creek Community Fair to be held this year at the Greens Creek school house on October 9.

Premium list folders have been published and placed in the hands of the farmers and merchants in the Greens Creek section.

The Greens Creek Fair will be the only sectional Fair in the county this year. First plans for community Fairs called for a fair in each township, but later it was decided to combine all of the communities int one large Community Fair except Greens Creek Township, the largest in Polk County which would hold a Fair of its own.

The farmers and housewives of that section are taking much interest in the event and it is expected that there will be many exhibits in all the departments. Up to date there have been about 200 entries altogether.
