New for this year is the admission perk of anyone wearing Saline School Gear will be admitted free all day long on Wednesday. The Cement Slab Tractor Pull will take place on the track in front of the grandstand beginning at 10 a.m. and continuing throughout the day and evening until all tractors have pulled. The pig, feeder calf, rabbit, steer, poultry, and lamb judging will take place throughout the day, beginning at 10 a.m. Returning for a third year is the Inclusion Day special where our special needs friends and their helper will receive free admission on Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Elliott’s Amusements will provide free selected rides for them from 12 to 2 p.m. The remaining carnival rides will open at 2 p.m. Each day will feature three shows of The Comedy Farm Magic Review and there will also be a Bricktown Lego Display open from noon until 8 p.m. each day. Late afternoon and evening activities include a Saline Alumni Gathering open to all alumni, the South & West Washtenaw Consortium Student Organizations Showcase where you can learn more about the great clubs and organizations that are available for the consortium programs, the introduction of the five recipients of the Saline Community Fair Ambassador Scholarship, the announcement of the Saline Chamber of Commerce People’s Choice Awards, and the Saline Schools Ag Olympics. Be sure to come to the fair to cheer on your favorite Olympic team. They have some great events planned.
