This Week's Puyallup Fair Ticket Winners: The Elliott Family

Don't forget to sign up for a newsletter for a chance to win, and be sure to tell us in the comments why Patch should send your family to the fair.

Elicia and Mike Elliott have been taking their boys to the Puyallup Fair every year for the past decade. This year, Mercer Island Patch is happy to be part of that tradition.

The Elliotts and their three boys--Zack, 17; Ben, 15; and Chris, 11--received a pair of tickets to the fair courtesy of Patch.

The music, the food and the animal exhibits are among Elicia's favorites.

Nobody won this week's family four-pack of tickets and Patch goodies, so that prize will roll to next Thursday's random drawing, meaning two families will get to go eat scones and ride rides until they're sick.

I'll be a bit more direct than Jerry. The new site is a mess. Visually it's extremely cluttered.Read More It's slow, very slow. There appear to be no RSS feeds, a major negative. Following a few links sometimes sends you to a different community's Patch site. And what happened with the editing staff. Unless I missed something, suddenly there are new editors without any warning. No matter what the circumstances, normally such a move would be accompanied by an announcement of some sort. Venice may be the greatest editor ever, but it looks like she is splitting her time among several Patch sites, so the odds are stacked against her. Her "latest activities" list even suggests that she is editing a Patch site down in the San Francisco Bay area. With all due respect, Patch sites should be hyper-local, and the best route to that is a local (i.e. Mercer Islander) editor.

The Jury is still out. I liked the "Old Patch". J
