Sat, Sept 10,11am - 5pm Rossland Arena, Rossland
Creston & District Complex
This traditional fall fair is housed in the Rossland Arena, two or three steep blocks up from Rossland’s pretty downtown. The best in the region’s crafts and agricultural products are showcased inside the huge barn-like wooden structure. Who will win the Blue Ribbon for best carrot – or the most fantastic carrot? Or the finest squash?! Go to find out! It’s a true local experience, and a great introduction to this mountain community. This fair is an integral part of the annual Rossland Golden City Days celebrations. The town will be buzzing with live musical and theatrical entertainment, craft and market vendors, even a petting zoo! Let loose and enjoy Rossland’s incomparable mountain culture and join in for this last hurrah of summer. A great weekend destination for the family.
Admission is $4 for adults, $2 for children www.crestonvalleyfair.com The Creston Fall Fair has been going strong for almost a century – so you know it’s the real deal. Now in its 98th year, it is still an old fashioned, traditional agricultural fair. Fair-goers will get to see 4-H shows, plus red ribbon adjudication for the best in local farming and homestyle products like canning, pickles, and pies. Bring your pocketbook for the vendors, who will be displaying produce and locally made crafts and products of all kinds. Lots of unusual events will appeal to everyone. Cheer on the human “horses” at the Cherry Chuckwagon race; the Pedal Tractor Pull competition for kids is too cute for words! There will be an auction, wine judging, most-beautiful-baby contest and so much more to see and do. See you in Creston at the fair!
