Key Quotes:
- “We have a really big demolition derby that takes place that a vendor puts on during Memorial weekend, and every one of them has been the biggest they’ve had. So, we don’t know if everybody’s just tired of being homebound and wants to get out and enjoy themselves. So, we predict that this will be as big a fair as we’ve ever had.” – Brad Cosenza
- “My oldest daughter, Caitlin, she was a big forager…wanted to be. And, spent a lot of time at the Corcoran Farm and she ended up showing their dairy cattle. I thought, well, if I’m going to be at the fair all the time with her, how can I help out here? So, that’s how I got on.” – Brad Cosenza
- “If you’re coming for the food and the rides…that’s a great piece of it. If you’re coming for the food and rides, and you’ve never been in an animal barn and seen animals up close, the barns themselves are a great show.” – Brad Cosenza
