Kiss the Goat

Around $800 was raised for the goat barn during the week-long Kiss the Goat Contest at the Newton County Fair. Money was collected for five contestants, Tim Burks, Drake Babcock, Danielle Sands, Sheriff Tom VanVleet and Councilwoman Abbey Rossiter. The jar that collected the most money had to kiss a goat Saturday at the fair. There was a tie in the competition and Burks and VanVleet both had the honor of kissing the goat. ABOVE RIGHT: Burks is shown kissing a goat July 16. ABOVE LEFT: The participants in the contest shown, from left, with Carly James are Drake Babcock, Danielle Sands, Sheriff Tom VanVleet, Tim Burks and Councilwoman Abbey Rossiter.

Dustin Lynch put on an amazing show in Newton County

Dustin Lynch was the headliner Tuesday night at the Newton County Fair. Dustin Lynch occupies a unique place in today’s country music.

Thanks to his classic sensibilities, he’s been heralded as the heir to George Strait’s throne. Yet with one listen to his two-week #1 smash, “Where It’s At,” it’s obvious the young Tennessean knows how to combine his traditional influences with an edgy intensity that places him at the vanguard of today’s contemporary country scene.
