Bedford Riverfest

08/13/16 By Gary M. Baranec A large crowd gathered during Bedford's annual Riverfest to watch among other things Paul Cogar (left) of West Virgina compete against his cousin Scooter Cogar in a woodmen's competition called the spring board chop. (You chop notches in a log and insert a plank which you stand on to cut the next higher notch. then you chop through the log entirely at the top)
