Continuing on a tradition that has been ongoing since 1928, the Warren County Agricultural Fair returns to the fairgrounds in Roseville this summer. Taking place July 13th through 20th, Fair Board President Jon Strickler shares some of the events to look forward to at this year’s fair.
“Starting with our pageant on the 13th, followed by mud volleyball on Sunday the 14th. As we get into the week, we have our [livestock] shows starting earlier. Cattle and livestock will start coming in on Tuesday. On Wednesday, we are having our Family Night in conjunction with the Regional Office of Education. So, a lot of events for the families and kids, and the best part is it’s free,” says Strickler. “On Thursday, we’re going to have our rodeo, that will be brought to us by T and A Bucking Bulls. We are going to not only have bull riding, but we are going to have barrel racing and Mutton Busting. We will have a band that night, Lacy’s Ditch. Then on Friday, we are going to have our demo Derby and we’ll have Captain Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters playing. Then on Saturday, we will have the Figure Eight races, followed by the Radio Flyer Pilots playing.”
Strickler adds as the board continues to plan this year’s fair, they are open to ideas and suggestions for improving the fair.
