The Lycoming County Fair recently concluded, and it is now time for a noted annual fair in a neighboring county—the Clinton County Fair, which takes place this week, July 27 to August 3. It promises to offer fun and excitement all of its own.
The fair, which is taking place at the Clinton County Fairgrounds located at 98 Racetrack Rd., Mill Hall, offers Wolves of the World as the grounds act or daily show. This looks like a very interesting show.
The rodeo will be held on Thursday evening at 7:00 p.m., for the second year in a row. According to fair officials, it was a big hit last year.
Ron Beck will display his baby animal on the lower end of the dairy barn. This is always an attention grabber for the little ones.
A renovation project in the swine, lamb, and goat building replaced the last of the wire pens with new wooden pens. They are very well-upgraded and were funded by the Lutz Family in Memory of Coy Lutz.
New to the fair this year is the Supreme Showman event on Friday afternoon at 4 p.m. This event features the grand champion showman from the five livestock events—beef, swine, lambs, goats, and rabbits—squaring off in the livestock arena, with all five species competing to be awarded the Supreme Showman of the 2024 Clinton County Fair.
Also new this year is Kiddies Day at the Track on Wednesday at 7 p.m. An obstacle course will be set up on the track for the kids to complete with their bicycles.
A new ride vendor was also obtained to upgrade the quality of rides they had at the fair.
“I believe we have a very nice entry in the livestock barns, which will make for some very competitive shows. Our youth do a great job working with their animals and preparing them for the fair. Their hard work will also be showcased with our first ever Supreme Showmanship competition Friday afternoon,” Wayne Bechdel, a Fair’s Board of Directors member, told Webb Weekly. This is all made possible by the support and involvement of our community members, who play a crucial role in making the fair a success.
He continued, “I would also like to thank all of the buyers that support our youth yearly at the livestock auction on Saturday afternoon.”
“I believe there is a nice variety of events to take in at our fair this year with the Wolves of the World show, several races at the track, Kiddies Day at the track obstacle course Wednesday evening, a rodeo Thursday evening, and the kids’ tractor pedal pull also that draws a nice crowd.”
