One of the best weeks of the summer for our community is the Union County Fair! This week-long celebration is full of hard-working students, proud parents, and excellent livestock and projects. After each day, our attendees enjoy entertainment such as a tractor pull, two nights of rodeo, and a demolition derby. We even have a free concert the first night of the fair! We could not be more proud of the reputation this fair has given our county, and look forward to building more traditions as the years go on. 
The 2022 Union County Fair will be held July 21st-27th. Each animal exhibited at the fair must be registered BEFORE July 1st, 2022. All Clothing and Communications Entries are due BEFORE June 15th, 2022. All Static Exhibit Entries are due BEFORE July 10th, 2022. Links to register projects for the 2022 Union County Fair will be live soon!
