Running of the Wools is a relatively new event in downtown Washington that highlights the close relationship the city and region has had with the farming and sheep industry and is a way want to show appreciation for the county’s farmers and all they do for us! The event continues through Sunday when the weekend wraps-up with a community blessing service at the pavilion.
