Music Fund Fest draws large crowd
By Jane Elling Staff Writer
More than 500 people attended the Clearfield County Fair Queen Committee's sixth annual Music Fund Fest on Saturday, held at the Expo I Building at the Clearfield Driving Park, said Robert Swales, co-chairperson of the Fair Queen Committee. The total included the bands, workers and complimentary tickets
All entertainers appearing donated their time and talents. Performing were One Lane Bridge from Allenbank; The Moore Brothers from Clearfield; Young Gunz, local artists; Ozone Rangers from Buffalo, N.Y; and Smokin' Joe and the Wild Horse Band from Clearfield County. Bob E. Day again served as master of ceremonies.
During the last song played by One Lane Bridge, "God Bless the USA," an enthusiastic crowd waved flags that had been distributed, and when the Moore Brothers played, attendees turned out on the floor to dance. The enthusiasm continued as the crowd enjoyed the music and the different types of snack foods and beverages available, and they purchased and distributed tickets into the various containers in hopes of winning the top prizes. Mr. Swales said Steve Livergood won the 1-carat diamond cluster ring worth $1,000 that was donated by Zalno Jewelers of Clearfield, and the chainsaw carving went to Paul Serena of Hyde.
