12A COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL August 19, 2015
Faces of the Fair
The 83rd annual Western Oregon Exposition and
Heritage Fair offered activities and showcases for the

schedule. Antique engine displays, live music, skills
demonstrations and livestock and creative competition

images from this year's Fair:

He is expected to face a litany of
