By Friday morning, and prior to going to print, the Southern Tier was experiencing another sunny, yet cooler day; making way for a good crowd for the Tioga County Fair.

Things kicked off slowly on Tuesday, with the Pie Contest, Arts & Crafts Barn, animal exhibits taking shape, and the near assembly of Gillette Rides was taking shape for fairgoers. <\/span><\/p>\n

For Tuesday\u2019s rodeo it was a packed house, with nearly the same sized crowd arriving for Wednesday\u2019s demolition derby.<\/p>\n
