Musicians took to the grandstands to open the fair.
Then animals, and the daredevils who ride them, took over the grandstands for a couple of days with bull riding and rodeo.
Starting Wednesday, it is the motor vehicles, and the daredevils who drive them, that will put the Clark County Fair into cruise control for the next five days.
Here is what is happening at Summer’s Best Party on Wednesday, Aug. 7
Demolition Derby and Monster Truck rides are headlining the grandstands on Wednesday at the Clark County Fair. There are two performances for the derby, with crashes scheduled for 2 p.m. and again at 7 p.m.
And folks can get a ride on a huge truck. They’re not called monster trucks for nothing. They are huge.
Wednesday is also Prime of Your Life Day at the fair. Senior citizens can attend the fair at a $2 discount at $8 a ticket.
Some of those seniors just might be performers, too, as the Washington and Oregon Federation of Square Dancing takes to the Holt Homes Community Stage for a performance at 4:45 p.m.
And, of course, the daily exhibits continue on Wednesday. That includes the Pirate’s Parrot Live Bird Show, Butterfly Adventures, Curly the Camel and Friends, as well as DogTown. The featured exhibit this year is Dino Encounters.
All of that, and more, as the fair hits Day 6 of its 10-day run.
