Near fest is off to a great start. Mr. Mike and company did a wonderful job. I liked that there wasn't a screaming announcements every 2 seconds. It had nice shady areas, the apple crisp person was there with the best chicken stew in New England. Only suggestion would be if the fair grounds could have tables set out ahead of time. Some of the older Hams could use a rest break especially when it gets warm out.
Looking forward to the fall Nearfeast, Best Wishes
