October 11th, 2011 by Fawn | Posted in Lynden, Whatcom County Events | No Comments »

It’s coming! The start to my holiday crafting madness, the Lynden Craft and Antique Show. The smells of the hot cider being served, the piano being played and the sight of all the wonderful vendors, antiques and crafts, I love it!

This year’s show dates are this Thursday, Friday and Saturday the 13^th-15^th. The Lynden Craft and Antique Show is held at the Lynden Fairgrounds, parking is free and admission into the show is $5, $4 for seniors and children under 12 years old are free.

The show features tons of vendors, with Christmas and holiday crafts, food, art and more. I always like to attend to get ideas for craft to make on my own at home or to pick up some early Christmas gifts for family and friends.

It’s Corn Maze Time in Lynden- A Favorite First Fall Activity

September 1st, 2011 by Fawn | Posted in Lynden, Random, Whatcom County, Whatcom County Events | No Comments »

It’s September 1st which means that Fall is just around the corner. What better way to get ready for the start of the Fall Season than checking out the corn maze in Lynde. If you think that mazes are just puzzles for small kids, think again! Corn mazes are great fun for people of all ages. Corn mazes are carved into fields of cornstalks that are over 7 feet tall. People then have to walk through and try and find their way out. And it’s harder than it looks! Because you can’t see the whole picture, you just walk around and hope for the best. Many times you end up back where you were before because it is very difficult to distinguish between one wall of corn stalks and another!

Hours for the maze run from 6 to 10 p.m. Fridays, 2 to 10 p.m. Saturdays, and 2 to 6 p.m. Sundays through September. A flashlight maze runs in the evenings Fridays and Saturdays.The Corn Maze is located just South on Lynden on the Hannegan Rd and is open 6pm to 10pm on Fridays, 2pm to 10pm on Saturdays and 2 to 6pm on Sundays. Be sure and bring your flashlight if you are visiting after dark!

Admission is $6 for those in 7th grade on up and $4 for kindergarten through sixth grade students. Children 4 and under are free with a paying adult. A family rate is also available $18 for two adults and three kids. Proceeds from the maze go to the Lynden High School FFA.

Whether it’s crafting displays, animals, amazing food, machinery, music, entertainment or talent displays you are sure to find something to fit your needs at the Northwest Washington Fair. One of my fair favorites happens to be all the kids 4-H animals. It’s so neat to so all the hard work and dedication that the youth of Whatcom County put into raising their animals to show at the fair and then in most cases auction off in the livestock auction Friday on the fairgrounds. The kids put in countless hours of work at the fair. One little gal told me that she arrives on the grounds at 5:30am in the morning and does not leave until 10:30pm each day. Each day the kids must wash and clean up after their animals and clean the fair’s barn and facilities in which their animals are housed, making for a long hard work for a lot of kids as noted by the picture I took at left of a little girl asleep in the barn cuddled up with her cow.

Come out to the fair and enjoy some of the fun rides and attractions

The fair also has daily feautured grandstand acts ranging from today’s performer Trace Atkins to Saturday’s Monstercross event. For more information on the Northwest Washington Fair you can visit their website www.northwestwashingtonfair.org or call the Fair Office at (360) 354-4111.
