Amador County Fair 2010

5-amador_county_fair_2010.pngAmador County - After a successful first year, the Amador County Fair Survivor competition is back with a twist. This year teams of two will be encouraged to apply for a chance to be one of five teams competing for $1,000 and the title of the ultimate Amador County Fair Survivor. The chosen contestants will spend the entire duration of the fair (Thursday, July 29 to Sunday, August 1, 2010) at the fairgrounds in Plymouth. Again this year, contestants will be asked to compete in a number of fair related challenges, without money, electronic devices and while only consuming fair food the entire time. The winning team will be awarded $500 and an additional $500 will be given to their favorite local charity. “Last year’s event was so successful, the Fair won a First Award in the Facing Challenges category at the Western Fair Association Conference,” said Amador County Fair CEO Troy Bowers. “It was a wonderful opportunity to generate new interest in the Fair and promote several local charities.” “This year is all about bringing something different to the table,” said Competition Coordinator Brandi Ehlers. “New challenges, new surprises and lots of fun can be expected.” Teams can consist of parent/child, siblings, cousins, friends or any other combination of two. Contestants must be at least 18-years-old. For full rules and regulations and an application available now, visit www.amadorcountyfair.com. Applications are due to the Fair Office in Plymouth Monday, June 28, with chosen contestants announced the following week. This email address is being protected from spambots.
