佛爾塞的舊時光蘋果節
地方性遺產
您也許聽過這句話「一天一個蘋果,讓醫生遠離您」(An
apple a day keeps the doctor away)。但蘋果不只是一種健康食品。事實上,人們對蘋果的熱愛,讓他們在密蘇里州為它舉辦了一個節日。
首屆舊時光蘋果節於1980年在密蘇里州的佛爾塞舉辦。它包括了一場古董拍賣會、法院大樓臺階上的戲劇表演、無鞍騎乘馬拉松、販售工藝品及食品的攤位,還有許多比賽項目,包括:削蘋果皮、釘子駕駛(nail-driving)、伐木、畫臉及吹口香糖。
現在,假如您有機會參加舊時光蘋果節,您可以從中獲取許多樂趣,如:跟米老鼠及米妮對話、觀賞玩偶表演、騎小馬或觀看遊行,您也許可以在遊行行列中,看到騎在機械馬上的「微笑喬伊」(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.
