Ellen Reichert of Meeker made away with a large haul during the horticulture competition at the Rio Blanco County Fair. Reichert’s Red Lake currants captured the fair’s horticulture Best in Show award as well as champion and first-place ribbons.
The north end of the Rio Blanco County Fairgrounds was packed with campers, mostly from Rangely and Piceance Basin, for much of last week as the campers were taking part in the Rio Blanco County Fair. Many of the events covered several days, so the campers set up to avoid long daily commutes from around the county.
Madison Kindler of Meeker takes a breather between her pigs Sugar and Grizz following the Junior Livestock Auction, spending time with them before they go away.
