CAMBRIDGE—Great news! Most exciting goings-on at the final board meeting before the fair. Harness racing will be held as planned on Thursday afternoon, June 24. Last-minute developments have made it possible to continue as usual. A big thanks to Rick for all his extra negotiations with the state, and to the Northern Colt Association for their tireless efforts to make this happen. Hooray!
CAMBRIDGE—We are now down to the wire and everything is fitting together for a super-fun-filled week from Tuesday, June 22, through Sunday, June 27, of Henry County Fair activities.
CAMBRIDGE—Hey there! Another week has gone by and now there are only 20 days until the fair! The directors are in desperate need of a group to man the gates during fair week. This is a paid position and an ideal chance to have a money-maker for your church or club. Two groups could partner with another group to split the work load. If interested, contact Connie Johnson at 945-3847.
CAMBRIDGE—Only a few weeks until the fair. Entries close at 5 p.m. Monday, June 7. Antiques will be exhibited in the Art Hall. The entries list was mistakenly left out of the fairbook so it is on the Web site. Or call superintendents Cheryl at 507-1464 or Terry at 945-8362. Susan Wells, Battle of the Bands organizer, needs more bands. Work days to help paint the inside of the old art hall for bingo and the barn dances will begin this weekend. Bring a paint brush.
CAMBRIDGE— Got a letter from Arizona and they want to send a donation, so here’s the scoop. Donations may be sent to the Henry County Fair Association, P.O. Box 105, Cambridge IL 61238. Our web-site is www.henrycountyfairillinois.com. Getting some requests for Battle of the Bands. If interested call Susan Wells at (217) 502-2409. I’m gettin’ real good at those drums so watch out—I’ve already entered.
CAMBRIDGE—The Art-Exhibition Hall has plenty of extra room for lots of new people to show their talents and a great chance to win money at the 2010 Henry County Fair. If you enter just one item you can receive a discounted exhibitors ticket and that gets you into the fair all week.
CAMBRIDGE—Hey! It’s me again! Busy meeting last night! First of all, a great big HUGE thanks to the village workers for taking care of the “down dead” tree that fell over the road. We really appreciated your help. Sure would have taken alot of “mouse muscle” to get that done.
