See our FAIR SCHEDULE for all the activities and the times for each one. If your little one is three-years-old or younger, you might consider entering the BEAUTIFUL BABY CONTEST. There is a variety of ENTERTAINMENT available, from magic, to dance, to pig & duck races. There's a horse pull competition, simulated NASCAR races, a monster truck you can ride, and more, more, more. Or, if you've got a song in your heart, there's the KARAOKE CONTEST, where you could win a cash prize or even a scholarship to a talent school. Don't forget the CARNIVAL where your family can enjoy the rides or maybe play a game and win a prize.

If you are a county student working toward your Community Service hours, the County Fair would be a good place to earn them. But we can use VOLUNTEERS of all ages to help, starting on Labor Day and continuing throughout the Fair. If you have a real interest, you might consider JOINING our volunteer Board as a member!
