At this year’s Tioga County Fair, Domestic Arts and Crafts, Department 10, includes three unique contests that are not described in the Premium Book. They are the always-popular “Best Pie Contest”, the “Tallest Corn Contest” and the innovative “Upscale Re-Use” ideas.
Pies can be of any kind, but must be submitted by noon on Tuesday, Aug. 6, as the contest is at 1 p.m. that same day. All are invited to join in on the fun, and remember that there is no admission to the grounds on Tuesday. Whether you enter a pie or not, everyone will have a chance for a taste if they so choose. Many consider this the real First Event of the Fair!
“Upscale Re-Use” highlights innovations created from materials that otherwise would have been recycled. Objects for this judging need to be in place before Wednesday, Aug. 7 at 1 p.m. Casella Waste Management donated the premiums for this division.
The ”Tallest Corn Contest” gives all growers of field corn a chance to show off their finest stalks. Corn stalks need to be delivered to the Arts and Crafts Building on Sunday, Aug. 4, between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. only. The prize for this contest is a $50 gift certificate donated by Ward & VanScoy.
The Fair Office at the Elm Street entrance will be open every day until Monday, Aug. 5, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Advance tickets are available for sale, as well as pre-registration for the Dash for Cash, Demolition Derby, ATV Rodeo, and Tractor and Truck Pulls.
