Amador County - Huell Howser, television personality best known for California’s Gold, says he wants to “sneak preview” six episodes of a new series he produced called California’s Golden Fairs throughout the month of September. The original plan was to roll out the series in the Spring of 2011. The popular PBS travel show host was reportedly so impressed with the project that he decided to preview six episodes on PBS stations in California. The first episode to air will feature the Amador County Fair, where he interviewed CEO Troy Bowers and a host of others on the longstanding popularity and history of the local event. So far, Howser has been to eight California Fairs including Riverside County Fair, Calaveras County Fair, San Diego County Fair, El Dorado County Fair, Alameda County Fair, Marin County Fair and the Nevada County Fair. “In addition to the three fairs remaining to be featured, Huell Howser Productions will produce a compilation episode focusing on the rich history and relevance of all California fairs,” said Bowers in a release. The series will promote the awareness, importance, and relevance of California fairs. “We are grateful for the sincerity and energy Huell has put into this series and the wonderful people who participated to help make California fairs the respected and important community assets they have become,” said Bowers. The Amador County Fair episode airs on KVIE on Tuesday, September 14, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. Story by Alex Lane This email address is being protected from spambots.
