Fair 2 weeks away Posted By: Ben Butler July 7, 2009 @ 4:29 am Today's Local News Tweet Share Email The Washington County Fair is less than two weeks a way, and organizers say this year’s entertainment should be one for the record books. Fair board Vice President Don Lewis says Washington County’s Fair has been named as a “blue ribbon fair” by the Iowa Association of Fairs. This year’s grandstand events include sanctioned tractor and truck pulls, rodeo riders, a demolition derby and up and coming country musician Jake McVey. The fair starts July 19 and runs through the 24th.
