(6-15-24) The Mercer County Fair announced this week on their Facebook page that the new giant wood carved Sasquatch located in the Fairgrounds has a name…Nelson.

Nelson was created by the Bear Hollow Wood Carvers and was a part of the total solar-eclipse celebration held on the Fairgrounds.

Springer & Sons Tree Services of Celina donated a portion of the lumber used for the project,

Everyone had an opportunity during the naming process to vote online to name the new Fair occupant.
