Oregon Country Fair Returns To Veneta

Wikimedia

The 1960s came and went, but the spirit stayed in the woods of Lane County. 

It is there, in the woods near Veneta, that the Oregon Country Fair keeps the spirit alive with its extended weekend, July 13-15. 

The feel of the counter-culture is recreated at OCF, with everything from vaudeville to body painting.  Charlie Ruff is the former GM of the fair, and still a dedicated fan.  He visits with details of this year's happenings.
