Biggest Little Fair in the World!


Before moving to Johnstown in the mid 90's I didn't know what I was missing, The Hartford Fair! It comes around each August right before everyone goes back to school. The week is filled with so much: various 4-H projects, livestock, crafts, amusement rides and games, business displays, politicians, and the FOOD!

Besides all of that there is a big event each night in the Grandstand, check out this years line up:

Saturday: Phil Dirt & the Dozers
Sunday: Pick up Truck & School Bus Races
*Monday: Love & Theft/Dustin Lynch Concert*
Tuesday: Truck/Tractor Pull
Wednesday: Demolition Derby
Thursday: Motocross Racing
Friday: Rough Truck Contest
Saturday: Championship Horse Pull

The full schedule can be found on the fair's website: http://hartfordfair.com/schedule.htm

As a kid, I stayed year after year at the fair participating in the 4-H Band. We literally lived at the fair which meant some exciting and exhausting times with a lot of Fair Food! After my time in the band I took a few years off from visiting the fair but now I look back fondly at those times and now attend the fair in a different role. I've been setting up a display booth in the Business Buildings for several years to get to know people and offer my services to the attendees. Each year we did different things in the booth for fun - contests for a pedal tractor, bistro set, double amish rocking chair, and more. This year is going to be a little different. We have a drawing that has been going on all year and it will end in December. The attendees at the fair will have a chance to enter in our drawing to Win A Cruise! Each person that signs up to receive an insurance quote will be entered to win. The winner will be notified in December and will be given the opportunity to go on a Free Cruise in 2014. We will lots of other fun stuff in the booth as well so we hope we get a lot of visitors.

We also have a Facebook contest going on through Sunday August 4th at 5:00pm  It is for a chance to Win 2 Track Seats to the Love & Theft/Dustin Lynch concert Monday night at the Fair.
