Show me your Friday face.
Now, show me your Friday face at the Clark County Fair!
Better yet, show me your Friday face at the Clark County Fair while eating doughnuts!
Admit it, you are smiling now for sure.
And if you are into Tuff Trucks going up and over dirt obstacles and through mud pits, then the fair is definitely for you on Friday, Aug. 9.
Tuff Truck will have two performances, one at 2 p.m. and the other at 7 p.m. on the eighth day of the 10-day run of this year’s Clark County Fair. Folks can also catch a ride on a Monster Truck.
The daily exhibits, including featured exhibit Dino Encounters, will continue on Friday.
There are other highlights for Friday, as well.
Including the Dot Donuts Donut Eating Contest. Registration for the event is at 12:30 p.m. at the Holt Homes Community Stage. The competition begins at 1 p.m.
Also at the community stage on Friday, IJenNeh African Music has a performance at 3 p.m. Later, it’s Dug Cox and SmokeWagon at 4:30 p.m. Joe Black, the hypnotist, has shows at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m.
A reminder that the Clark County Fair is open an hour later than normal on Friday and Saturday, until 11 p.m. And while it is not official, if you are a carnival fan, those rides often stay open later for folks who were already in line when the fair closes. But you didn’t hear that from us. And it is not official.
Anyway, have fun Friday night (and Saturday, too) for at least an extra hour.
