Acknowledgements
I want to thank the Fair Association and those people who gave their time to help bring this book to completion. Of course, most important to the project are the individuals who were interviewed. I cannot express how thankful I am to these people. It was so nice to hear the stories of working at the Bloomsburg Fair. Five people were interviewed for this volume. They were: Mr. Elwood (Woody) Heaps, food vendor; Mr. Fred Trump, former Fair President; Mrs. Debra Heckel-Baigis, Barton House volunteer tour guide; Mrs. Nancy and Mr. Dick Bowman, food vendors; and Mr. Rick Creasy, vendor and games. Finally, I must thank my student Daniel Brown for the long hours and attention to detail he showed in the slow and difficult process of transcribing the tape-recorded interviews into written form.
