Fair celebrates veterans

Today is Veterans Day at the St. Joseph County Grange Fair, as the 166th annual event enters its homestretch for 2016.
Blessed with a week of good weather, the fair is expected to draw another strong crowd today and its closing day Saturday.
Events on tap today include antique tractor pulls, open-class draft horse-cart show, live music in the community tent, the 4-H sweepstakes showmanship contest, and the grandstand event tonight is modified tractor and truck pulls at 7 p.m.
Saturday will be Country Day and highlights include youth poultry-calling contest, livestock judging, pie-eating contest and a goat costume contest.
Mud Runs close out the grandstand entertainment at 7 p.m.
