The stage at the grandstands is coming down to make room for bull riding and, of course, sheep riding for the little ones competing in Mutton Bustin’, and Monday is Family Day at the fair

The concert series has come to a conclusion, but some just might say the concerts are only the appetizers for the main course at the grandstands.
The Clark County Fair still has plenty of music, at the community stage, and throughout the fairgrounds.
But the big-name musicians have made way for little people holding on for dear life while riding sheep.
Oh, and bull riding and more rodeo, and then motorsports later in the week.
The fair’s theme this year is: We’ve Got it All.
The grandstands will have a lot of it.
The fair will continue with its daily exhibits on Monday, including featured exhibit Dino Encounters. Look for a link below for the entire day’s entertainment schedule.
But here are some highlights for Monday, Aug. 5 at Summer’s Best Party:
The always popular Mutton Bustin’starts at 2 p.m. Monday at the grandstands. Parents can register their children starting at noon. The top riders from the afternoon are invited back for the finals during the nighttime performance featuring way bigger animals than sheep.
Hell on Hooves presents Extreme Bull Riding on Monday night. Man vs. Beast. Let’s ride!
In other animal news, among the judging on Monday is dog judging at 11 a.m. at South Hall 3.
Monday is also Family Day at the fair. Kids ages 7-11 get into the fair for $7.
