7 Multi-Media Solutions We are the one source for your customized solution. Welcome to the 66th Annual Warren County Prime Beef Festival. This years theme is Fun for the Whole Herd. Growing up in this community I cannot think of a time without memories of the Prime Beef Festival. It started as a child, the rides, the food, and who could forget the cotton candy or cider slushes. Then those teenage years herds of us teens, hanging out and enjoying all the festival had to offer. As an adult it has been an honor to be part of such an incredible community event from seeing those same traditions that I remember as a child, to creating new traditions for the future. 10 years ago I had the privilege of being asked to join the Prime Beef Festival Committee. I have enjoyed every minute of those years and look forward to many more. Please join me in participating in the traditions we have all grown to know and enjoy. This year our Parade Grand Marshall is P.J. Brooks. I selected P.J. because he has been part of the Prime Beef Festival for 28 years. In those 28 years he has served on several different committees. Anybody involved with the Prime Beef Festival knows if they need anything he will do all he can to help out. We have a week packed with great activities, which will please both young and old. Our festivities will start in the same tradition as the years past.
