The Skowhegan State Fair, the longest consecutively running fair in the entire United States of America, is set to open its doors to the public once again on Thursday, August 12th.
Fair season in Maine is well underway and the 196th Skowhegan State Fair starts on Thursday, August 7th and goes through Saturday, August 16th. There's nothing better then walking around the fair, enjoying a fried dough and just soaking it all in.
Over 23,000 votes at b985.fm decided which four bands would play live at the Skowhegan State Fair to battle it out for the Great Country Quest last night. The four bands were Buck T. Edwards, The Allison Ames Band, Wildhorse and 43 North. So, who won?
Fair season in Maine is here! Join B-98.5 for the opening day at the Skowhegan State Fair, this Thursday, August 8th. The B-98.5 Great Country Quest finals will be going on Thursday night starting at 7. Your votes at b985.fm chose the final four bands.
Did you get your votes in? Well, they have been counted and after over 23,000 votes cast it's time to reveal the finalists that will be performing at the Skowhegan State Fair August 8th.
And here they are:
Central Maine's #1 Country, B98.5 and the Skowhegan State Fair are looking for the next great country band. It's the 'B98.5 Great Country Quest.' Country bands are invited to submit an .mp3 of them performing a country song (cover or original.)
We are hours away from 2013, it sounds so futuristic to me. I do want to thank our B98.5 listeners for another great year. I've been working here since August of 2000 and it's amazing to look back at all the fun we've had this year.
