Rain can’t spoil carnival fun
Water Valley’s 41st annual Watermelon Carnival didn’t let a little rain dampen the fun as folks showed up for arts and crafts and for all of the different competitions held each year. Jarrett Patton topped the field in the Largest Watermelon contest with one that weighed in just over 107 pounds. (August 9, 2010, Page 1)
2010 WV carnival promises even more fun
WATER VALLEY — The 2010 Watermelon Carnival doesn’t have an official slogan or theme — other than, of course, watermelons — but one look at the itinerary and it’s easy to see what the event promises the same fun from the 40 previous carnivals, but with even more to do. The annual carnival starts Thursday and continues through Saturday. (August 4, 2010, Page 1)
