Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be a prisoner in a state penitentiary?&#160; To have to live as they live and do the work they are required to do?&#160; You can experience these feelings for a little while when you take the West Virginia State Penitentiary Tour.&#160;

This annual celebration has something for everyone.&#160; The Agricultural, 4-H, FFA, Canned Goods and Flower Show are just a tiny part of this outstanding celebration.&#160; The Antique Power Show is held in Heritage Park with working antique engines used in farming and industry in the early part of the century.&#160; Another interesting thing to see is the oil derrick (which is in Heritage Park) fired up for people to see.
