[Stateside Twins' Eyeshot] Living with Aspiration
2009-06-12 Author:Ruby Source:Twins days
This year the festival's growth forced the committee to hold the festival for two days instead of one in order to accommodate the additional activities. Two large tents were rented to house the Twins Contests and the long schedule of entertainment. A TV show, N.O.V.A, attended and filmed a great portion of the festival as part of a documentary. Each time the documentary was aired the committee received hundreds of calls for additional information about the festival. This year the Ohio Parks and Recreation Association awarded Twins Days with the Award of Merit in the Category of Outstanding Program for 1981. There were 20 contests held for twins in 1981. Lynn Trefzger, known as "Lynn and Friends" was a starring act at Twins Days. Now she is a professional. There were a total of 376 sets of twins registered this year.
