THURSTON COUNTY COMMISSIONERS HOST FAIR BREAKFAST

OLYMPIA – The annual free breakfast, sponsored by the Thurston County Commissioners, is back this Saturday at the Thurston County Fair.  The breakfast is free with a paid admission to the fairgrounds.  County Commissioners will be serving up delicious food from 8:30 AM to 10 AM.  The breakfast is paid for and served by the County Commissioners and county staff.

Thurston County Commission Chairman Oberquell says, “I don’t want to sound too syrupy, but this is a real fun event and a good time for us to chat with the folks we serve, not only breakfast but year around in our duties as commissioners” 

The 2008 Thurston County Fair kicked off July 30th and will run through Sunday August 3rd.  In addition to the pancake breakfast the fair features more than 100 food, crafts and commercial vendors as well as the carnival midway and lots of entertainment. 

Tickets for the Thurston County Fair are- $6 for adults, $4 for seniors and youth and free for those five and under. 

The fair is located at 3054 Carpenter Road SE in Lacey.   To find out more, please visit the Fair web site at http://www.co.thurston.wa.us/fair/default.asp
