The West Virginia Legislature celebrated West Virginia Fairs and Festivals Day in the capitol rotunda.
Several festivals were represented and capitol guests were greeted by an assortment of foods, fair facts and crafts.

Other festivals present included the Cabell County Fair, the West Virginia Pumpkin Festival, the Preston County Buckwheat Festival and the Mountain State Art and Craft Fair.
West Virginia Fairs and Festivals Day provides an eclectic mix of great people and places the state Legislators are proud to represent. Many of the Legislators visited with their constituents and took part in hometown traditions.
