Aniak Fair was
Great!
The Interior River State Fair was
held at Aniak on the 18th and 19th of August. People from Bethel,
Anchorage, Kalskag, Chuathbaluk and, of course, Marshall, went to the
Fair. Many of them had come to see the Anchorage live band play at
the community hall on both Friday and Saturday nights. People who
hadn't bought tickets beforehand had to pay ten dollars to get in at
the door.
I went over with my family and really
enjoyed it. I saw a lot of my friends from Aniak and Kalskag there.
My aunt Francine from Anchorage even went for one night. She is also
a hair stylist. While she was there most of the women from Aniak
called her up to get their hair done. She also trimmed my hair for
free which was nice of her.
On Friday night I went over to the
community hall with my aunts and when I jumped out of the car I
wasn't really sure if I wanted to go in. There were a lot of people
milling around outside, talking and laughing. I had fun talking with
my friend Marilyn Peterson and her brother Vernon. But Vernon was
pretty quiet. The Anchorage band was pretty good, and I even danced a
couple of times. I also had fun there with my friend Kim Dein from
Spokane. We hung around together most of the time.
On Saturday night a bunch of Kalskag
teenagers came to the dance, and I saw my cousins Harlan and Sonny.
Then I met the two Savage brothers, Joseph and Yago. Later Danny
Ausdahl from Kalskag came over to Aniak to pick up Kim's mom, and he
was excited about the dance.
The Anchorage band played music from
the 80's which was cool. The people enjoyed it and danced to their
heart's content.
I have never had so much fun in my
life. I hope that someday more people from all over go to Aniak for
their Annual State Fair.
