Each year our family, the Cole’s, all make the trek to Sheldon, Missouri to celebrate the annual Old Settler’s Picnic that takes place each year at the beginning of August. This is the type of fair where you have lots of games and competitions that are worked into the schedule throughout the weekend. It also has entertainment, a carnival, a tractor pull competition, a car show, fireworks, judging of vegetables, arts and crafts, and melons, and a parade! Every year we are filled with new memories from fun at the picnic.
