Today is School/Kids day! Between 9-2 schools can bring kids out to see the animals, creative arts & horticulture buildings. We also incourage elderly and families with children to come out during this time to take advantage of not having the larger crowds that come out when the carnival opens up.

The Commercial, Creative Arts and Horticulture buildings open at 5. The carnival opens at 6 and the EHC Kitchen opens at 4, so come have some home cooking before you check out the exhibits.

Please share and get the word out....IT'S FAIR WEEK!!
