Amador County - The Amador County Fair Board of Directors recently released the poster for this year’s annual event, sure to be a roarin’ good time. “Amador County Fair Safari, It’s a Jungle Out There!” will be the theme for the 2010 county fair, taking place July 29th to August 2nd. The poster captures that theme in a simple but striking portrait of a lion drawn by local artist Rand Huggett, who has been creating the fair’s posters for over 28 years. Amador County Fair officials say they are in the process of printing the posters and hope to have them distributed throughout the county by mid-May. This year’s theme has generated a lot of excitement among fair coordinators. “I can’t wait to see the decorations and fantastic fun ideas that our exhibitors, staff and community will come up with for this year’s Amador County Fair,” said Amador County Fair Board President Robert Manassero after the theme’s announcement last December. He said “pith helmets, expedition gear, exotic animals and fun” will be used to set the mood. In choosing this year’s theme, the board considered the tough economic times and wanted to create an exciting affordable adventure here in Amador County. “We always look for a fun theme that our staff can decorate around, we can create fun contests for exhibitors, and coordinate our entertainment so that we can keep things fresh for fair visitors to enjoy,” explained Sherri Elliott, Amador County Fair office manager. In related news, the Fair office announced Monday that entry guidebooks are now available at the fair office in Plymouth. Beginning May 10, look for the guides in the usual outlets, including Amador High, Sutter Hill Cooperative Extension Farm Advisory Office, Jackson Library, Chamber of Commerce in Jackson, Argonaut High and the Drytown General Store. The Amador County Fair is the largest community event in Amador County and is proud to partner with local organizations such as 4-H and FFA, Interfaith Food Bank, Jackson Lions Club, Jackson and Plymouth Foothills Rotary and others to raise funds for community services. This year will be the 72nd edition of the Amador County Fair. Story by Alex Lane This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
