Fair bench auction

Wooden carved bench promo 9-2015

The Van Wert County Fair and the Bear Hollow Wood Carver are joining together for a high-octane tribute to four local schools. The wood carver will create a one-of-a-kind bench (similar to the one above) for Van Wert, Lincolnview, Crestview and Delphos St. John’s schools. Each bench will portray the school mascot, as provided by the individual schools. The benches, as well as the remainder of the chainsaw art, will be auctioned off at 5 p.m. Monday, September 7. Admission to the fair is $6 at the gate. All proceeds from the auction go to help pay for the wood carver’s fees and toward additional fair expenses. (submitted photo)
