Music highlights Country Fair

From rock and country western to the barber shop specialties of the Sweet Adelines, continuous music will entertain fair-goers at the Third Annual Country Fair at the Episcopal Church of the Transfiguration on Saturday, August 15, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The stellar list of local musicians includes: The Persuaders, offering vintage rock and roll; fiddler champ Rudi Booher and his brother Ned, with their foot-stomping rhythms and the folk duo of Phyllis Sokol and Dick Sandvik.

Recording artist Andy Miller brings new expression to country-folk and the Sweet Adelines bring back the hits of the '30s and '40s with their four-part harmonies (remember Java Jive?)

The church is located an eighth of a mile west of Sisters on the McKenzie Highway Kids can revel in games, pony rides, sheep cart rides and the performance of Hobie the Clown.

A full-scale juried Art Show and Sale in the church undercroft adds a new dimension to the afternoon. A wine and cheese art preview will be held Friday, August 14 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. For Art Show inquiries call 549-4853.

Fair admission and parking are free.
