Hi. I have been trying to find out if the Altamont Fair has a spinning product or finished skein competition that I can enter. I have not seen anything specific to such a competition on the fair site, so thought I might comment here to see if I can get some info. You can respond directly to my email address, if you wish. Thank you in advance for any info you can provide. Ellen Porcari

Also, I think you should hold a talent or singing competition. I know that many other fairs hold singing competitions and its a great idea.

My friend is 16 and she is amazing singer and it could really help people get out there and get noticed.

I have gone to the fair as long as I can remember, first as a kid showing animals and help my father with the harness horses. Now my children are enjoying the fair.
The weather for the 2008 fair, I am sure did not help the attendance as well as the price of gas. However, more ads in the tri city area would have increased the # coming through the gates. You had great bands this year and the attendance should have been better.
Also the cattle tent is SO dusty and it is hard for the elder to walk through. Couldn't that get fixed so more could enjoy the hard work of the farmers that bring their cattle.
I would hate to see the fair go down.
The tri city area needs the fair to keep going and bring its continued enjoyment for generations to come.

As we were leaving the Fairgrounds Friday night, we notiied the mass of people inside the tent of the expectant mother. We were lucky enough to be able to view the birthing process of a beautiful calf born at around 11:10pm. What a way to end our visit to the fair!!!

I waited most of the day on Thursday to see the delivery and I had to leave, so I missed it . I see in the Times Union Snowball delivered on Thursday. Does anyone know what time? We were all guessing and I wondered who was the closest to the delivery time.

Thanks,

Is is possible to send in entries online? If so, how is that accomplished? I didn’t see anything on the Fair home page.

Thanks!
