99th Annual Coombs Fair (August 11-12, 2012)
Get quackin’ and head to Coombs on August 11th and 12th this year, as Coombs celebrates all things ducky at the Coombs Fair.
For 99 years, the Coombs Fair has been celebrating local agriculture and community. This event is a family affair with lots to do and see. From livestock to garden produce, arts & crafts, photography, needlework and domestic science, many hours of work go into the exhibits at the fair.
There will be pancake breakfasts each morning, Bingo, chicken races, Ladies’ nail driving competition, a dunk tank, plus all kinds of demonstrations and exhibits. There will be an English and Western Horse Show and an American Poultry Association sanctioned Poultry Show with chickens, geese, turkeys and ducks! You can also find sheep, swine, and goats at the fair. Come see the entries in the wacky Gardening Hat Contest or watch the spinners and weavers at work.
Fair Gates are open Saturday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM and Sunday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
