Step 200 years back in time at the 28th Annual Fair at New Boston! Everything about this quality event creates the illusion of time travel to 1790 - 1810.
Your full day of historical adventure will begin with cheering and huzzahs as Revolutionary War hero General George Rogers Clark rides into the Fair on horseback. Cannon fire will salute General Clark, Daniel Boone, and other heroes of the frontier, as they are formally welcomed at Opening Ceremonies. After the 15 star flag is raised over the Fair ground, stay around to hear food vendors brag about the quality of their delicacies and merchants urge the Fairmasters to stop by their booths.
Fairgoers will have a hard time deciding where to go next. There is so much to do!! A wagon ride through the fairground is the perfect way to get a quick overview. There is so much to see!
A Note from the Doctor: This is a GREAT event! I'll be going this year for the first time in my new 1811 suit of clothes. Registration IS closed, but that doesn't keep you from showing up and just walking about and shopping in your period garb.
And the shopping is spectacular! I wait for this one all year long just to get to browse and shop. If you come out, be sure to introduce yourself!
