Thursday is Kids’ Day at the Clark County Fair
Thursday is Kids’ Day at the Clark County Fair, and if your children like big trucks and racing, well, it’s a good day for the parents, too, to grab some good memories.
Here are some of the highlights for Thursday’s edition of Where Fun Meets Farm at the Clark County Fair:
Side by Side Racing will bring Utility Terrain Vehicles to the off-road short track at the grandstands. Driver and passenger take on the course, and other vehicles, in one of the most competitive and fun off-road motorsports.
Also, this is a good day to get a ride on a Monster Truck.
Side by Side Racing and Monster Truck rides are set for 2 p.m. and again at 7 p.m. Thursday.
Of course, there are also the featured events every day at the fair. They include the Wizard’s Challenge, opening every day at 10 and open until the fair’s closing time. The Fun Zone for children goes from 10 a.m. until 9 p.m. DogTown opens at 11 a.m. Curly the Camel and Friends, Butterfly Adventures, and the Bee Barn are open, too. Plus there are several shows a day for the Pirate’s Parrot Live Bird Show.
Also on Thursday, the Andrew Matthews Band is set to perform at 5:15 p.m.
Hypnotist Jerry Harris, and Magician Adam the Great, and Professor Smart’s Science Show also are back on Thursday.
Plus, clowns, jugglers, comedians and more will be “strolling” around the fairgrounds all day.
Penelope the Clown will have a show at 1:30 p.m. Paul Isaak will have two shows featuring juggling and comedy.
