A big weekend is on tap in the city of Washington (rain or shine).  On Saturday, the Main Street Pavilion will feature agricultural exhibits, educational displays, a children’s area, and craft vendors. The day will also showcase local downtown businesses with a breakfast crawl and a kitchen clash, and will culminate with the Running of the Wools. where champion sheep will take on Main Street.  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.
