"Sew It, Grow It, Show It"
The 63rd Annual Montgomery County
Agricultural Fair’s theme was “It’s Udderly
Terrific”. We had a wonderful fair while
creating special memories. The new lawnmower
racing brought new flair to opening night, the
Monster Truck Backflip astonished the audience,
StatueViva drew crowds and the animals events were
remarkable. We appreciate all the volunteers,
participants and patrons that support the fair and
come together to help produce a spectacular fair!
