In 1979 a log house, believed to be the oldest structure in town, was razed to build the Sheetz store at the corner of King and Queen streets. SHARPS was comprised of a group of local residents concerned with the alarming trend of destruction of many of the oldest buildings in their historic community. The initial effort of the group focused on its heritage goal, promoting awareness and preservation of Shippensburgs rich architectural legacy that spans the 18th through 20th centuries. The 29th Annual Shippensburg Corn Festival will be held, rain or shine, Saturday, August 29, 2009, from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, named as one of the Best Small Towns in America.

Early in 1953, Prairie Farmer joined forces with WLS-Radio in Chicago with the idea to host a farm event even better than the mechanical corn picking contests taking place around the Midwest at that time. It is this group who is credited with creating the idea of hosting a field day where farmers could see first hand the progress being made in farming equipment, along with seed varieties and ag chemicals. The first Farm Progress Show took place on October 2, 1953 on the Earl Bass farm in Armstrong, Illinois and hosted over 75,000 folks. This show offered visitors an opportunity to see equipment, seed and chemicals as well as fire-fighting demonstrations, sheep dog trials, stage entertainment, a fiddlers contest and even the WLS Barn Dance. In subsequent years, the show evolved to include seed test plots and field demonstrations. While some of the programs evolved from our original program, weve stayed true to American Agriculture and to bringing the best of American Agriculture to our audience. The Farm Progress Show is the Super Bowl of Agriculture with its huge exhibit field and product demonstrations. *Booth prices are subject to change.]]> Tue, 9 Mar 2010 08:57:33 CST ev48a2f289ccb3d Events In America http://www.eventsinamerica.com/events/2009_twin_falls_fair_magic_valley_stampede/ev4a2fddc1b326b/ Come on out and join the fun celebrating the Twin Falls County Fair.

In 1853 the fair site was moved to Delavan but returned to Elkhorn in 1854. In 1855, the first purchase of land, from Colonel Edward Elderkin, was made consisting of six acres within the Village of Elkhorn limits. The cost was $100.00 an acre with 10% interest, a high price for the time. The city of Elkhorn donated $300.00 to fence the land, erect pens and sheds and to dig wells. The fair site has remained in Elkhorn since 1855 on this same location. Today, the acreage owned by the Association is approximately 99 acres. The land and buildings are now valued in excess of one million dollars. During its existence the Fair has received the support of the entire community. This support is shown by the gradual increase in its receipts. The increase in interest taken in the Fair has been proportional to the increase in receipts, and the success with which the Fair has been due not only to the solid foundation upon which it was laid, but also the united support all members, regardless of their social position, political views, or creed.
