Here in the Willamette Valley, we have many types of festivals throughout the year. Some of these are very well known (Oktoberfest), while some of these are not (Wurstfest). For this Festival Friday, I would like to mention a festival that I had not heard of until last summer. The Linn County Lamb & Wool Fair in Scio, Oregon, will be celebrating its 78th year from May 17th to the 19th.
This fair features sheep shows, fiber arts, and crafts. Northwest Champion Sheepdog Trials will be held at the same time. On Saturday the 18th, a parade will be held, and those with baking skills can enter for a Chocolate Cake Contest. Many other events occur over the three days, and certain events only occur once, so check the website listed below to find out which day you would like to check out this festival.
You can also check out their website, Northwest Lamb & Wool Fair, for more information.
