Move over Huskies. Step aside Seahawks. There is a new mascot coming to town. Lenard the guinea pig, Tater Tot the Pigeon and twin goats owned by twin women are among the 13 critter finalists competing to be crowned the official mascot of the King County Fair. The Critter Crowning will take place at high noon on Wednesday, July 16 on the main stage at the King County Fairgrounds in Enumclaw. The winner will replace Dulce de Leche, a Nubian goat, who in 2002 was deemed by judges to best exemplify the spirit of the fair.
