佛尔塞的旧时光苹果节
地方性遗产
您也许听过这句话「一天一个苹果,让医生远离您」(An
apple a day keeps the doctor away)。但苹果不只是一种健康食品。事实上,人们对苹果的热爱,让他们在密苏里州为它举办了一个节日。
首届旧时光苹果节于1980年在密苏里州的佛尔塞举办。它包括了一场古董拍卖会、法院大楼台阶上的戏剧表演、无鞍骑乘马拉松、贩售工艺品及食品的摊位,还有许多比赛项目,包括:削苹果皮、钉子驾驶(nail-driving)、伐木、画脸及吹口香糖。
现在,假如您有机会参加旧时光苹果节,您可以从中获取许多乐趣,如:跟米老鼠及米妮对话、观赏玩偶表演、骑小马或观看游行,您也许可以在游行行列中,看到骑在机械马上的「微笑乔伊」(Smilin'
Joe)。
You have probably heard the expression "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." But apples are more than just a healthy food. In fact, people love apples so much that in Missouri there is an entire festival dedicated to them.
The first Old Tyme Apple Festival in Versailles, Missouri, was held in 1980. It included an antiques auction, a dramatic presentation on the courthouse steps, a bareback riding marathon, craft and food vendors, and many contests, including apple-peeling, nail-driving, log-sawing, face-painting and bubble-gum blowing.
Today, if you go to the Old Tyme Apple Festival you can have lots of fun talking to Mickey and Minnie Mouse, seeing puppet shows, taking a pony ride or watching a parade, where you just might see "Smilin' Joe" on his mechanical horse.
