COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) - WIS continues its coverage of the South Carolina State Fair during day three.

Since the fair’s opening day on Wednesday, WIS anchors and reporters have taken you inside the fair to show you the different food, rides and exhibits the fair will feature this year.

Heritage Village

On Friday, we kicked off coverage with WIS’ Jordyn Markhoff, who from the start of the day introduced us to a glimpse of time.

Markhoff was at the Heritage Village, a section of the fire that features many fun things meant to give you a bit of a blast from the past.

Markhoff spoke with crafter Maryanne Farrel who explained more of what happens in the Heritage Village.

Deep-fried treats

Next, we took a look at everyone’s favorite part of the fair, the food!

Markhoff met with Bill Proant, a food worker working a booth that sells deep-fried sweets.

We took a look at how the fan favorite of the fair -- the funnel cake-- gets made, this time, with a little twist.
