The Westmoreland County Fair began this week, and what a wonderful beginning it was! Although this is one of the largest such events in the state, it still has that small town USA feel, which accurately reflects the community that it portrays. Saturday was Armed Forces Day, a day that you over there or back home can enjoy with all the festivities on them, those with military ID get in free. This county fair is a major supporter of the military men and women who serve their country.

One of the events that I attended was the competition for fair queen. Since you could not go, I went for you. Visiting with all these lovely ladies was a chore, but what is a boy supposed to do? These young ladies restored my faith in American youth. They were all so All-American, my opine on what that is of course, and their resumes’ were chock-full of wonderful accomplishments.
Emily Gabriel, 17, the 2009 Westmoreland Fair Queen from Slickville Pennsylvania, is a Greensburg Salem High School senior; she is wearing Black & White in the “I will be Queen one day” image, and separately as shown. Emily will represent the county during her reign.
