57th Annual Coconino County Fair
The 2006 Coconino County Fair, September 1-4, will celebrate the traditions of the fair event and honor the unique communities and cultures of Coconino County . From backyard agricultural trends to water conservation techniques to energy-savings technologies, fair-goers will learn how to live in balance with the land and environment. Healthy living strategies will be demonstrated and explained - from "slow foods" to backyard vegetable gardening to organic meats and produce. Local organizations, businesses, and individuals will have booths, presentations, and hands-on activities that will educate and entertain people of all ages.
And, don’t forget the arts - Coconino County has an amazing number of creative residents! Whether its acrylics, photography, beadwork, jewelry, or handmade fashions that excites you, the Fair is the place to see and admire your neighbors’ and friends’ skills and talents. Who knows, you might even be inspired to enter something of your own into next year’s event! Performing arts will be showcased on three stages and feature everything from rock-n-roll to mariachis to school orchestras to dance. This year’s Fair will entertain and delight your entire family
Come visit the exhibits at the Horticulture and Floriculture Buildings. Many Master Gardeners have entered produce and flowers, and many others will be volunteering to help answer questions.
