Tuff Trucks are back on Saturday, plus a number of musical and dance performers
If you like cheeseburgers, and a lot of them at the same time, you might want to head out to the Clark County Fair on Saturday.
Yep, there is a cheeseburger eating contest.
Also, if you missed Tuff Trucks on Friday, no problem. They’re back on Saturday.
Only two days left of the 2023 Clark County Fair.
Here are some of the highlights for Saturday’s edition of Where Fun Meets Farm at the Clark County Fair:
The Tuff Trucks bring out daredevil drivers who take their trucks (or SUVs) over a dirt track of bumps, jumps and a mud pit. It’s timed racing, but the clock is secondary. The chaos on the track is what gets the fans coming back to watch.
The Tuff Trucks go at 2 p.m. Saturday and again at 7 p.m. at the grandstands.
There are few contests, as well, on Saturday.
The 4H Dogs Obedience Grand Champion Show is at 11:30 a.m. at South Hall No. 3.
The Toddler Trot Contest starts at 11:30 a.m.
There is a Draft Horse Show at noon.
The Cheeseburger Eating Contest is at 1 p.m.
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 Saturday, a number of music and dance performances are on the schedule.
The Vancouver Ballet Folklorico Dancers perform at 11:30 a.m.
ReVamp Acoustic Band is set for 2:30 p.m.
The Anavai O Te Ora Polynesian Dancers will be on stage at 4 p.m.
