With this year’s Fair theme of “Barnyard Buckaroos,” there are plenty of special entry possibilities for those interested in entering projects for judging. Buckaroo Furnishings, Decorated Cowboy Hats and Boots, Milk Carton Covered Wagons, and “My Own Barnyard Buckaroo” photo contest are all part of this year’s fun for the Fair.
There are still a limited number of kits available to those interested in participating in the Solar Powered Sprint Car contest for youth and teens. The Fair provides the solar cell kit, and competitors then design and build a solar powered vehicle that will race on a 20’ race course. Solar cell kits can be picked up at the Fair office.
For a free ticket to the Nevada County Fair, be part of our “Wild Horse Round-Up,” and find one of the wild horses hidden in local businesses around Grass Valley and Nevada City. If you spot one of the horses, bring it to the Fair Office on McCourtney Road by 5 pm on August 1 and receive your free ticket.
Complete descriptions of all categories and contests are available online or in the Fair's free Competition Handbook. The handbook is available at the Fair office, area libraries, chamber of commerce offices, various sponsoring merchants, and online at the Fair's web site.
This year’s Nevada County Fair is August 6-10, and there will be thousands of community exhibits, barns full of champion livestock, thrilling arena motorsports, five stages of ongoing entertainment, games, carnival rides, and Treat Street goodies awaiting Fair-goers.
