(Publisher’s note: Thursday’s events published yesterday.)
One of the most anticipated events of the Chelsea Community Fair is Ladies Day on Friday, Aug. 26. So mark the date, be sure to set your alarm, and get ready for a fun morning.
Gates open at 7 a.m. and registration is at 7:45 a.m. The program runs from 8:30-10:30 a.m.
Mary Tobin, Ladies Day superintendent, says that “insiders” know that they need to be in line well before registration time. In fact, the earlier the better, as the first 300 registrants (18 years and older) get goodie bags filled with lots of surprises.
When you get there, have an address label in hand to save time registering for a chance to win fabulous door prizes donated by a local merchants and businesses. The morning is filled with complimentary refreshments, entertainment, a fashion show and lots of laughter and fun.
Planned are: Studio 3 Performing Arts Center dancers,Rob Crozier, musician performing jazz, vintage pop, and Americana music, 325 goodie bags and more than 150 door prizes.
If this will be your first time, Tobin promises you’ll be hooked — and it won’t be your last.
From 4-10 p.m., you’ll find bingo taking place at the Knight’s of Columbus tent and Colors the Clown performs from 3-7 p.m.
If it’s tractor pulling that you enjoy, farm stock, speed-pull weight transfer sled classes begin at 7:30 p.m. in the Main Arena.
The horse show takes place all day and you can wander through the Merchant Barn and the Nature’s Creation of Life barn as well.
Rides open at 1 p.m.
