The first-ever Narrows Community Fair will take place on Saturday throughout downtown Narrows. This day of activities replaces the former Fall Festival, and will be full of food, fun, fishing, a 5K run and so much more.
The day begins with a 5K run, starting at 8 a.m. at Ragsdale Field in Narrows, with the course route following Virginia Route 724 along the banks of scenic Wolf Creek to the Blankenship Mountain Road turnoff. Families and individuals are welcome to participate and can register by contacting Burman Clark at (540) 726-8008 or Helen Gillespie at (540) 921-4292. Starting at 9 a.m., a car show will be held along Main Street, sponsored by A&R Productions. If you are interested in participating, contact Myron Anderson at (304) 425-3370. As the morning continues, young anglers are invited to bring their poles, lures and lines and join in the Trout Fishing Rodeo to be held at the Mill Dam Pond from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Youth and children up to age 15 are welcome to take part. While the schedule of entertainment is still in the works, a day full of music is promised at the Narrows Farmers' Market on Monroe Street. Bring your lawn chairs and stay for the day. Crafters, food vendors, political candidates and organizations are especially invited to reserve a booth along the streets of Narrows. For more details, contact Elizabeth Lucas at (540) 726-3220. The Narrows Business & Professional Association is sponsoring this event.
