A “Galactic” SENIOR DAY

AT THE MARSHALL-PUTNAM FAIR!

Senior Day at the Marshall-Putnam Fair will include free admission, refreshments and great music by the Henry Torpedo Boys on Thursday July 13 from 9 to 11 am in the Hunt Building. Doors open at 8:00 am when seniors will be greeted by local officials and Rotary Club members of the two Counties. Retired Marshall-Putnam Judges Mike McCuskey and Scott Shore will again emcee the event, with many donated door prizes for those over 65, and a guest appearance of the Fair Royalty, all adding to the fun.

The Henry Torpedo Boys, back by popular demand, will include Terry Feldott on banjo, and guitar, Rich Selquist on dobro, Dave "Barney" Erickson on mandolin, fiddle, and guitar; Tom Bogner on bass, Todd Witek on guitar, and all “pitching” in on vocals. The group’s fame has grown over the years as they treat audiences to a mixture of bluegrass, new grass, and a little bit of country. Henry native Tom Bogner says the group is looking forward to performing for our seniors, hoping for a record turnout!

Seniors needing transportation to the fairgrounds may call BPART (serving Bureau and Putnam County) (877) 874-8813 or Marshall-Stark Transportation at 309-364-2287 as soon as possible to be added to the transportation schedule. The Putnam County Community Center will also help coordinate transportation to the fairgrounds.

This year’s fair theme, “A Galaxy- A-fair,” is a celebration of all forms of music, and seniors lay valid claim to some of the best!   See you at the MP Fair Senior Day Celebration, Thursday July 13 from 9 to 11 am the Fairgrounds in Henry!
