Jump-starting the fun

Like a magnet, excitement drew a crowd to downtown Statesboro Monday, where the 50th Annual Kiwanis Ogeechee Fair parade kicked off a week of fun. Following the parade, many drifted to the Kiwanis Ogeechee fairgrounds on Ga. 67, where admission was only a can of food or $1 for the Statesboro Food Bank. But the fun started along North and South Main streets, where floats, marching bands, classic cars, antique tractors and even a few clowns made their way down the street.
