KGAC Fall Fair
Our family has been doing the KGAC fairs, spring and fall at Berea, for well over twenty years, so excitement mounts as we get ready for the set up on Friday. My sons were practically raised at Indian Fort Theater. You can see one of them booth-sitting at left. They know every inch of the woods, the stage, the culverts, and a good part of the mountain. We’ve eaten funnel cakes sitting on straw bales, huddled under plastic in the drizzling rain, and adjusted our heart rates to the chuf of Ted Wiseman’s steam-powered grist mill and the rattle and thump of the kettle corn popper.
Things change though. My boys have grown up, the gristmill has changed hands, and the fair has moved away from the woods and into Berea Memorial Park in town. Still, change is sometimes for the better and we almost alway manage to gather in Berea at fair time.
We look set for once to have some gorgeous fall weather. Join us and 94 other regional artists and craftsmen at Berea this weekend.

Well, the park looks pretty enough. Going to miss the Theatre, though; all that rusticitude. The blacktop trail, the sporadic lighting, the encroaching forest……
Of course you know I’m being silly
