This year brings one of the favorite local thumb area fairs, the 2007 Huron Community Fair at the  fairgrounds in Bad Axe. Running from August 5th through the 11th, you will find plenty of family fun, local entertainment, carnival rides,  Grandstand events,  livestock shows, and much more. This fair is really the spirit of  Huron county and rivals the county fair as the most popular  fair in Huron county.

Every day of the Huron Community fair is packed with plenty of activities for the entire family. From the farm animal exhibitions, to the demolition derby there is pretty much non stop country fun. There is something for everyone so be sure to spend a day at the Huron Community Fair and experience much of the local flavor of Huron county.

I made it out to the fair on Monday which was kids day. Its only $3 to get in and much of the fair is free. There is an additional entrance fee for many of the Grandstand events, but if you check the Huron Community Fair Events Schedule there are some that are free if you go on the right day. I enjoyed watching the horse pull teams and checking out the local merchant tables. You never know what to expect from the vendors and its always nice to see the local artisan goods.

The midway was active with children, teens, and families enjoying the nice variety of rides and carnival games. Plenty of fair goers were enjoying the 4-H and Future Farmers of America animals on display as well as having dinner at the many food carts. I strolled through all the buildings and there are plenty of rabbits, horses, pigs, goats and of course cows all competiting to be the best of the fair. My day at the Huron Community Fair came to a close with watching the 4-H king and queen being crowned as well as a new Huron county bean queen being choosen. This was a popular event and the Arena was quiet full.

The Huron Community Fair is an annual event that really showcases much of what Huron county has to offer. If you have never been, you should make an effort to attend as it is a good time with friendly people.
