The fair was a tradition for us for the 4th of July. No fireworks because of a litle fight last year? Sad. Full price on fourth of July even though it closes 5 hrs earlier? What a rip! Also, sooo many rules added. Too much $ for what is basically just another carnival now that should be held in a store parking lot. Last year they had less vendors than the year before. This year seemed to be even less. Talked to some of them and they all tend to agree this may be their last year at this fair. Bummed out by rules and over pricing. Better luck next year? I can imagine if this keeps up they will lose a substantial ammount of patrons through the next couple of years.
