ROME TOWNSHIP

It is many things to many people: a chance to win an award for hard work, a place to meet old friends and make new ones, the prime location for a little fun this week.

The Lawrence County Junior Fair began Saturday at the fairgrounds in Rome Township. It will continue through the end of this week.
