The Siskiyou Golden Fair, which is running in Yreka through Sunday, has a new feature this year. It's AgVentureland, in which kids can do mock farm chores and ride "tractors" through a maze of hay stacks. It's part of the fair's ever-present ag theme, which is all the more important as fairs are having to make do without state funding.
In the photos, from the top: 11-year-old Cheyenne Copeland of Grenada in Siskiyou County saddles a mock horse; Lilly Hughes, 3, and her brother, Landon, 5, of Yreka try their hand at milking a fiberglass cow; and Landon Hughes practices his roping skills.
My story will be up at CapitalPress.com soon.
