MT. WASHINGTON VALLEY’S DAILY NEWSPAPER
FRYEBURG — Warm, sunny weather brought out a record crowd on the final day of the eight-day Fryeburg Fair on Sunday. Total paid attendance for the day was
28,011, breaking the previous closing-day record of 25,759, set last year. Paid attendance figures do not include children under 12, who get in free, and people with passes or lifetime membership. Fair-goers were in shorts and sandals Saturday and Sunday, as temperatures hit
the low 80s both days. June Hammond, fair secretary for nearly 25 years, says she doesn't remember a warmer weekend at the fair. The weather was a complete turnaround see FAIR page 8
