St. Mary's Country Fair in Los Gatos is an annual event that happens the second weekend of October. This year, my family and I visited it on Sunday morning. It was quieter than we've seen it on Friday nights or anytime on Saturday (esp Saturday nights, which tend to be packed). Really geared towards the littlest members of the community on Sundays, the fair nonetheless has something for everyone then too.

It should be added, too, that while there was a magnificent car was benefit going on at Fisher Middle School for Sara Cole, the Country Fair had a booth to draw donations too. It looked like they were doing well .

I took a lot of photos to share with you - a snapshot in time of a Sunday morning at the fair. I hope you will enjoy the slideshow! (And there are extra still photos to view as well.)

It was heart-wrenching to read the story: Sara Cole, single mother of four boys, was the victim of a hit and run drunk driver as she was standing near her vehicle along Blossom Hill Road in Los Gatos a few weeks ago. The drunk driver was apprehended by a Park Ranger a couple of miles up the road.

Sara's medical expenses are myriad. The community wants to help.

A fundraising car wash will be held to assist her with medical expenses on Sat/Sun, Oct 13 - 14, 10am - 4pm at Fisher Middle School. The school is located at 19195 Fisher Avenue in Los Gatos. Please stop by!

If you are unavailable those days but would like to help, a fund has been set up to help with the family's medical expenses. Donations can be mailed to the Sara Cole Fund, P.O. Box 320846, Los Gatos, CA 95032, or to get more information visit www.saracolefund.org.
