Dennis-- No where did I see on the site and I don't think you mentioned but where is the Erie Fair held at?
Posted by: Jenson at August 28, 2005 3:05 PM
Jen - it's on Route 8 about 15 miles outside of Erie. Take Parade Street which turns into Pine Ave which turns into Wattsburg Road which is Route 8. The fairgrounds is a mile after the Route 8 and Route 89 intersection.

Rotthoff Strawberries at 13828 Route 8 in Wattsburg is just across the road from the Erie County Fairgrounds.
