Competing at This Year's Hamilton County Fair
The 2011 Hamilton County Fair takes place Tuesday through Saturday, August 9-13. That means the time is now if you want to make something to enter at the fair (I'm thinking food and small crafts for such a short period of time; however, if you've completed needlework in the past two years, you can enter those items as well).
Competing at the fair is fun, and winning a ribbon is kind of an Americana ritual that everyone should get to experience. The fair's website lists all of the competition categories, including needlework, crafts, flowers, animals, vegetables, and cooking and baking. Each category is linked to a page where you'll find all the details of when to bring your entries to the fairgrounds, the classes in each category (for instance, all the types of antiques you can enter), the prizes awarded, and when you can pick up your entries at the end of the fair.
