"Family Fair... Family Fun"


Family Fun for All

I would like to welcome everyone to the 159th Clinton Spring Fair, "Family Fair, Family Fun!" My name is Dawn Powell-Parker and I am the new President of the Huron Central Agricultural Society. This year we have made some changes to our format. We are excited to announce that we have changed the Ambassador Competition to Thursday night. It will take place upstairs in the auditorium at the Central Huron Community Complex. The trade show will take place on the arena floor starting Friday and we will be offering family entertainment on the arena floor as well. Check out the elementary and homecraft displays on the arena floor during the weekend. The ever popular demolition derby will continue to take place on the race track Friday night. The baby show takes place upstairs at the arena Saturday morning. Don't forget about the parade Saturday at noon and visit the midway during your visit. Saturday afternoon is when the pet show and mini pedal tractor pull takes place. Everyone enjoys the talent show Saturday evening. This year it will also take place upstairs at the arena. Enjoy the poultry shows and visit the REACH Centre (inside and out) for the horse shows on Saturday. We are trying to offer something for everyone. Hope to see everyone out to enjoy our 159th annual spring fair "Family fair, Family fun!"

Welcome to our fair.
