Each year the Coosa Valley Fair brings to Rome the giddiness of childhood, the smell of familiar, fried fair foods and the thrill of a new ride or two.
But this year the fair is also bringing in some new surprises and some cooler weather.
“We’re going to have excellent weather, we couldn’t have asked for better fair weather,” said Nan Langford, President of the Coosa Valley Fair Association.
Langford is hopeful that highs in the low 70s all week will drive in big crowds, even bigger than last year’s record total of 80,000 fair goers.
And visitors will have more than just great weather to look forward to; this year the 63rd annual fair will have new surprises like new animals in the livestock pavilion and a new pageant.
“It’s so community oriented and family oriented, and we always want to keep it agriculture oriented,” Langford said.
This year’s fair, which will run Tuesday through Saturday, will include a new event with bands Babe’s Bayou and Runnin Wild Band, who will perform in the special events building on Friday night at 7 p.m.
