Fair board needs to fix sign

Wednesday, August 5, 2009

Dear editor:

Regarding the recent opinions of the 2009 Elmore County Fair, I would think that fostering a work ethic -- paid or volunteer -- should include correct spelling of words, i.e. signs posted on or around the fairgrounds property.

How many years has the following sign stood at the fairgrounds and gone "unnoticed?" It clearly reads:

CONTESTANTS

& LIVESTOCK

TRAILOR

PARKING

Hmm,, I cannot seem to find the word "TRAILOR" in my dictionary -- GOT SPELL CHECK?
