San Joaquin County Fair!
Wednesday, June 24, 2009
Its that time of year again! The San Joaquin County Fair Opens today! Its five-day run starts today with emphasis on the old (a return of horse racing) and the new (the theme this year is “We’re going green”).
The gates open at noon, with the horse-racing post time at 12:45 p.m.
Tickets are $5 before 5 p.m. today. Regular ticket prices are $6 in advance for adults and $9 at the gate; $3 in advance for children and $5 at the gate.
The 2009 County Fair features several contests centered on green technology plus the usual agricultural, floriculture, arts and crafts, science and technology, and livestock judging.
After a one-year separation from the fair, horse racing has returned. It will continue through Sunday.
