Who’s the Fastest Tricyclist in the Land?

On your mark, get set, peddle! Tikes on bikes will tap into their competitive spirits at the Lake County Fair Tricycle Race. It’s just one of the kids’ activities the fair will host. Others will include a Hula-Hoop Contest, Bouncy Ball Race, and petting zoo. Of course, the fair also will feature its usual carnival rides, livestock exhibit, and grandstand entertainment. The latter will include a Mexican rodeo, called a jaripeo, which will feature bull riding, horse dancing, and live music. There also will be a Mini Destruction Derby, including boat races, as well as Mudd Boggs, and Drifters and Burnouts. The fair will run August 31–September 3. Events are included in fair admission, which is $8–$12 (ages 5 and younger, free); on Kids’ Day, August 31, ages 11 and younger get in free.
