Northwest Washington Fair Photo Essay!

By Brandon Enyeart

A Look at the Northwest Washington Fair


The first Miss Lynden Rodeo, Bellingham’s Hilary Zender, is seen here signing autographs for fans.


The Kiesner Family is a brand new act this year at the Northwest Washington Fair. Dad, Phillip Kiesner, demonstrates his sharp shooting in this picture.



One of the Kiesner sons (Rider) looks on as his father shoots towards the sky. Ironically, Rider specializes in the roping part of the show, while little brother Roper specializes in the trick riding.



One of the many amazing tricks that Roper Kiesner wowed the audience with.



Phillip Kiesner explodes the second to last balloon in his “6 balloons in 6 shots” demonstration.



Do not try this at home! This is a stunt strictly for professionals!

“Soprano on a Dancing Horse” singer Dorothy Donell, who is fast becoming a star attraction at many fairs and festivals. She sang both the Canadian and American anthems.

great photo essay. I was sad to see that the draft horses were omitted. They are a large draw at the fair.
