The Lyon County Fair officially begins in full force Thursday night, and Fair Board member Ken Duft says everything is ready to go.
After several 4H shows over the past week, Thursday sees the opening night of the carnival after weigh-in activities for beef, swine, sheep, meat goats and bucket calves — and after open class exhibits have been entered in the Fairgrounds Anderson Building.
4H fair shows resume Friday with the rabbit, beef and bucket calf shows through the day, followed by the sheep and goat shows Saturday and the swine and poultry shows Sunday. Grandstand events begin Saturday with the ranch rodeo and continue through Aug. 13 with the demolition derby closing down the fair.
Tagan Trahoon broadcasts from the fair between 5-7 pm Thursday. KVOE’s fair coverage continues Friday with live video streaming of the beef and bucket calf shows, Saturday with video of the sheep and goat shows and Sunday with the swine show. 4H fair reports resume Saturday and Sunday on KVOE and KVOE.com.
