The Linn County Fair returned in all its rustic glory this year after COVID cancelled all but the 4-H livestock auction last year. Vendors and visitors alike described how the event signaled a return to normalcy.
âItâs just nice being able to be back out without masks,â said Chelsea Robinson, a Jefferson resident who was attending the fair with her child and significant other. âPeople are getting back to their routine.â
Part of that return to normalcy has been due to the vaccination campaign, which allowed Oregon on June 30 to drop its mask mandates and lift the freeze on large gatherings like these county fairs. In Linn County, which has lagged behind other counties in terms of getting the population vaccinated, there was a booth set up right at the entrance of the fairgrounds for anyone to drop by and get a shot.
