Eyes on the prize

Under the shade of the North Union Kids Zone tent at Richwood Summerfest on Saturday, students put on some minigames and activities for children to win prizes. One young participant, pictured above, seemed hypnotized by a bowl of prizes while hearing the objective of the activity. See Page 6 for more photos from Summerfest.
