It's showtime at the fair with music, food and rides.

But to go farther north would be a blunder.

Clue #5, Tuesday, July 18

A school marm would tell you it's a no no.

July 27-31 CiCo Park will be a hoppin'
Mark your calendars now, all the cool kids will be a stoppin'.
Long ago the fair grounds were at Griffith Park,
But that's not the direction you want to embark.

Clue #7, Thursday, July 20
At the Riley County Fair, 4-H'ers work will be in the spotlight.
