Rockhounds, gem collectors, and lovers of all things sparkling will be converging on the Twin Falls County Fairgrounds in Filer this weekend for the annual Magic Valley Gem Club Rock & Gem Show.
Free cookies and coffee, along with the chance to win one of five train sets in a raffle starting at 3 P.M., are all part of the free event. Photos with Santa next to the trains will happen from 2:30 to 3 P.M.
A couple of times a year there is a market that is put on that offers items you won't find anywhere else and that many anticipate and can't wait to attend.
Despite some changes, for better or for worse, the fair did what it was meant to do and that was entertain the people of the Magic Valley, but was it a true success?
Whether it's clocking that parent completely losing control over a kid, watching the guy leave the beer garden after five hours of pounding brews, that carnival worker with the great mustache spinning his game spiel, or the women in tight jeans, there's something for all to see when the carnival arrives in town.
Camping, fishing, swimming, and hitting the lake are obvious ways to spend Memorial Day, but there are tons of events and other options around Twin Falls as well.
