Fair should offer free water
The Big Fresno Fair should be ashamed.
I was there on Senior Day with thousands of other seniors. All the drinking fountains were shut off. They charged $3 for a 15-cent bottle of water. An elderly woman needed to take her medicine and was very shaky. She didn’t have enough money to eat and buy water, too. She figured water would be free. I purchased her a bottle of water. Someone said there was free water but when we asked no employee, not even the paramedics, knew where.
