Russia Homecoming Festival – Russia, Ohio – My Experience

This post documents my experience on September 4, 2016.

The Russia (pronounced “ROO-shee”) Homecoming Festival

…is a small community festival that takes place on the grounds of St. Remy Hall.

To one side, there’s a carnival area with rides…

…games…

…and food…

…while another side has gambling tents for the evening…

…a fancy stand, a cake booth…

…and a rather popular dunk tank.

Activities this year included an exotic animal zoo…

…a petting zoo…

…a cornhole tournament…

…various competitions (kiddie tractor pull)…

…and a car racetrack game.

But the heart of the festival was here under the big tent…

…where there were food stations…

…beer…

…a stage for evening entertainment…

…and a place to watch the game.
