FAIR INFORMATION

CONTESTS & COMPETITIVE EXHIBITS:

We truly believe that competitive exhibits are the most important part of our fair! Each year, thousands of homemade & homegrown items are entered and displayed at the Fair. All citizens of Inyo, Mono & Alpine Counties are eligible to compete for ribbons, trophies, cash & other great prizes. There are divisions for adults and kids of all ages & all skill levels. Quilts, baked & preserved foods, crafts, fine art, photos, flower arrangements, fruits & veggies…If you can grow it or make it, to the Fair you shall take it!

Special contests are always fun to enter or just watch! 2010 fair contests will include:
