I know Fairview very well as it is only 3 miles east of Girard on Route 20. Fairview was our biggest rival in all sports. In fact I went to 5th grade in Fairview before we moved to Girard. Fairview is about 10 miles west of Milcreek.
I was driving through Girard late one September afternoon a few years ago, and caught the homecoming parade. It was a real hoot to me, because we don't have that kind of thing in Philly. The Homecoming Queen and her court were tossing candy out, the band was marching, the football team was on a hayrick, I think, but I could be wrong.
Small town America personified!
