Just For Fun
This year, Sunday is Children’s Day and it’s full of entertainment and contests for kids. We will have music by Rob Duquette on the big stage and lots of fun contests like Egg Toss, Pie Eating, Frog Jumping, Spaghetti Eating, and of course favorites like Arm Wrestling and the Pig Scramble. The fun will continue on Labor Day with more contests and of course the Bike Contest, with thirty bikes being awarded again this year.
Contest sign up sheets will be at the Prize Ticket Booth near the Fair’s main entrance. Adults games will be on Sunday and Monday and include Corn Hole Toss, Salsa Chugging, Hot Dog Eating, and a Toilet Seat Toss. And that’s only a partial list!
