It won’t be long until your eyes, ears, nose, mouth and hands will come alive and be "Ag-Sensuated" with all that The Great Frederick Fair has to offer. The 142nd annual fair, set for September 17-25, will focus on the theme: Ag-Sensuate Your Senses...See IT! Taste It! Hear IT! Touch IT! Smell IT!

No other event allows attendees to test their senses quite like a county fair, and The Great Frederick Fair is no exception! All during the nine-day event, special programs, events and displays will "sensuate" your senses, whether you’re SEEING a calf being born at Birthing Center; whether you’re TASTING the smorgasbord of fair food; whether you’re HEARING a concert in front of the grandstand; whether you’re TOUCHING a lamb for the first time; or whether you’re SMELLING all of the aromas of the fair.

Many educational activities will follow the theme of this year’s fair through the Let’s Grow a Pizza, and the fair’s latest and newest educational program centering around potatoes and, "Spuddy Buddy." In the Farm and Garden Building there will be numerous classes and activities taking place with the new and innovative program.

And the Household Building will be taking on a new and different look and focus this year that you won’t want to miss!

And don’t forget the Decorated Wagon Contest and the Stick Horse Contest for kids; the Bike a Night give away; Machinery Row; the $40 carload special; the Milky Way; scarecrow making; City Streets, Country Roads; ! Check out the fair’s schedule of events and wesbite at www.thegreatfrederickfair.com for dates and times!

The fairgrounds will also come alive with the color schematics of purple and orange to decorate showrings, buildings, signage and special exhibits and displays.

School aged youngsters will be able to pack in all the fun and education during Friday’s traditional Fair Day, September 24. Children ages 18 and under will receive free admission to the fair from 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. All rides on Kids Day will be reduced by one ticket until 5 p.m. Regular prices will be charged after 5 p.m.

There are far too many things to note in this space about The Great Frederick Fair. Please take time to browse through the fair catalog and go on-line for all latest and detailed info about the 2004 fair at www.thegreatfrederickfair.com.

One thing is for sure...if you can FEEL it! If you can HEAR it! If you can TASTE it! If you can SEE it! IF you can SMELL It! then it must be fair time!
