HANGING UP HIS SPURS Alex T. Paschal/apaschal@saukvalley.com
Lawrence Hubbard, a mainstay at the Carroll County Fair since 1983, retired Aug. 13 after nearly four decades of working at the fair with the Carroll County Sheriff’s auxiliary. Hubbard, shown here with daughter Sheryl Hubbard, started with the mounted patrol, parking cars while atop his sturdy steed, Cherokee. At 90 years old, Lawrence said it’s time to step aside from his duties. The Lanark alum never let hard work or hardship keep him down, including losing his left arm when he was only 16. He still lettered in football. Vol. 82 • No. 14 One Section • 24 Pages
