Couple weds at Blyth
St. Michael’s Roman Catholic
Church, Blyth was the setting July
5, 1986 for the marriage of James

grave to Susan Elizabeth Hubbard

The groom is the son of Maurice

McNichol, Walton, sister of the

Ifvariety is really the spice of
life, the Dungannon Fair must be
the hottest event in our area this
summer.
The fair starts on Friday even
ing, August 15, with all kinds of
thingstoseeanddo. Amongthe
things to do is a whole range of
competitions.
At 7 p.m. the children have a
chance to show off their favourite
pet. The animal doesn’t need a
pedigree to enter this contest
because the judges are looking for
things such as the best dressed
animal, the pet with the longest
whiskers, the biggest feet, etc.
There is a prize for 10 different
classes but the best part is that
every child, who shows a pet,
receives a gift.
During the judging of the 1986
Fair Queen Contestants inside the
hall, those with energy to spare will
have the opportunity to use some of
it in chainsawing, log sawing,
balethrowing and armwrestling.
Approximately $300 will be distri
buted to winners in these four
contests. The good part is that
competitors can register right on
the Dungannon Agricultural
grounds on the evening of August
15.
On Saturday, August 16, the
competitions continue with the
heavy horses and an English and
Western Horse Show starting at
10:30 a.m.
Horseshoe pitchers will have a
chance to show their stuff at 1 p. m.
when games are played for men
partners and for women partners.
On the track, bike races will be
held at 2:30, followed by an open
one-mile run. The run is a new
contest and each entry will receive
a gift while prizes will be awarded
for first, second and third place
winners.
For those who enjoy a little less
strenuous contest, the watermelon
seed spitting is for you. For 25
cents, you receive a piece of
watermelon from which you save
the best three seeds to use in one of
the four different classes. In the
past, this has been a messy, but
refreshing competition.
A real favourite among fair
goers is the baby show. There is a
classforbabiesunderfour months,
four to eight months and eight to
twelve months as well as a class for
twins. Prizes are awarded and each
baby receives a gift, compliments
of Gerber Baby Foods Ltd.
Whether you’re in great shape
or not-so-great condition, you’ll be
sure to find a contest just right for
you at the Dungannon Fair, August
15 and 16. Even if you don’t
