The 168th Erie County Fair will be held from August 8th through August 19th this summer at the fairgrounds in Hamburg. Fair hours are 9AM to 10:30PM. Tickets are $9 for adults and $4 for children.
In addition to all the usual activities you would expect from a fair, the Erie County fair is also offering a variety of special attractions and exhibits that are especially interesting this year. Some have an additional small entrance fee or ask for a donation so choose the ones you are most interested in.
Lawton's Trout Farm looks like it will be a good time for all the fishermen out there. It is a 2,000 gallon pond filled with 400 trout for you to try to catch. If you're lucky, you'll catch a tagged fish that will win you a new rod and reel. This is a fun exhibit for all of the city kids who have never been able to go fishing for real.
The Commerford Petting Zoo is bringing some of their farm animals for you to pet and feed. Pony rides will be offered. For someone looking for something a little more exotic, elephant and camel rides will be available as well.
If you're a bear enthusiast, Bear Country is bringing a living collection of a variety of bears from throughout the planet. The goal of the exhibit is to inform visitors about conservation and environmental issues.
Allen's Original Redwood Log House sounds especially neat to me. Redwood trees are able to grow to huge sizes over thousands of years but this one is actually so large that a three-room home was able to be carved in the middle.
Nickel City Reptiles and Exotics is bringing wild mammals, reptiles, and birds for visitors to observe.
Inferno baseball will allow players to experience pitching off of professional regulation mounds. There are also two full size batting cages with a radar gun so you can see how your speed compares to the pros.
The Movie Monster Museum is an interactive museum that teaches you fun facts about your favorite monster movies.
The Haunted House has been redesigned for the season so that now you can see the scary stuff. The house is a huge maze of halls that you must continue to walk through to escape.
