APPLICATIONS AND REGISTRATION!
2011 will be the 38th year the Windsor County Ag Fair is held at Barlow’s Fields in Springfield. After a year off we are back to bring you all the excitement and entertainment we can come up with.
The ATV Obstacle Course competition returns this year with even more action – there will be classes run on both Saturday and Sunday. Take a stroll through our public yard sale where for no more than the cost of your entry to the Fair, you can set up a table and sell your used items. Some of our entertainment will be The Illusion band from Springfield , the Wild Country Cloggers and Buddy the Clown - there's something for everyone at the Ag fair. The Vermont Institute of Natural Science (VINS) will present their Raptor Encounters presentation. Barre Pinske, chain saw artist will delight old and young alike with his carvings.
Strut your stuff in the Country-Music Karaoke Contest, then reward yourself with fair-food and a horse-drawn wagon ride. Can’t sing but feeling competitive? Enter the baking contest sponsored by King Arthur Flour or the Jelly/Jam and Relish/Chutney contest, or perhaps the competitive horseshoe pitching is more your style. Amyland Amusements will entertain us with kiddie rides and if there's a long line there, head on over to the pony rides!
As always, the two-day schedule of events will include oxen and pony pulls, antique tractor exhibition, and the 4-H competition. Fair hours are 10 AM to 7 PM on Saturday and 10 AM to 4 PM on Sunday, and the fair is held rain-or-shine. The daily price of admission is $7.00 for adults and $3.00 for children under twelve and all 4-H members with a valid membership card. A discount is available for 2-day tickets.
Exhibitors are encouraged to reserve their space early. The 2-day fee for Commercial exhibitors is just $65.00 for a 10’x10’ space in tent. Not-for-profit exhibitors pay a reduced rate for their space. Educational exhibitors are not charged for space (provided they are not selling anything). Exhibitors should contact Jayne Smith at (802) 885-6046 or email wcafvt@gmail.com
