The 2018 edition of the Calhoun County Fair Talent Show was on target with previous years, Alex Foster, one of the judges, said.
“The talent was outstanding," Foster said. "All of them could have been first-place winners. Emma was wonderful singing 'Zombie' by the Cranberries. Briley is always awesome and can sing and dance. Quinn Perez did sing and danced an incredible number. She is classically trained in both. The Calhoun Fair always has a wonderful Talent Show."
Foster continued: "The Calhoun fair is amazing. I love going to it. It is charming with wonderful food. It was last night for people in the audience to say this was the best senior division talent they had ever seen over here."
