Country Fair Time of Year

Community contributed by Maria Sullivan

It’s time for the country fair!  The Saint Damien Catholic Parish Annual Country Fair is set for Saturday, Sept.17 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Mitchell Pauole Center.  Come and enjoy the morning with fresh baked goods, produce, homemade chili, Filipino treats and a silent and live auction.  Scheduled for the live auction block are a used car, hotel and golf packages (Maui, Waikiki), livestock and agricultural tilling.  The live auction begins at noon.  Festivities will conclude with a lucky drawing for a trip for two to Las Vegas!  All proceeds will assist the Parish in paying its $1.4 million debt for the new Saint Damien Church, which is slated to open this fall.  Pictured above are pastor Father Clyde Guerreiro and country fair committee member Shonna Pineda.
