The fair starts on Friday evening, Augustl5, with all kinds of things to see and do. Among the things to do is a whole range of competitions. At 7 p.m. the children have a chance to show off their favourite pet. The animal doesn't need a pedigree to enter this con- test because the judges are looking for things such as the best dressed animal, the pet with the longesrwhiskers, the biggest feet, etc. There is a prize for 10 different classes but the best part is that every child, who shows a pet, receives a gift. During the judging of the 1986 Fair Queen, Contestants inside the hall, those with energy to spare will have the oppor- tunity to use some of it in chainsawing, log sawing, balethrowing and armwrestling. Approximately $300 will be distributed to winners in these four contests. The good part is that. competitors can register right on the Dungannon Agricultural grounds on the evening of August 15. On Saturday, August 16, the competi- tions continue with the heavy horses and an English and'Western Horse Show star- ting at 10:30 a.m. Horseshoe pitchers will have a chance to show their stuff at 1 p.m. when games are played for men partners and for women partners. On the track, bike races will be held at 2:30, followed by an open one -mile run. The run is a new contest and each entry will receive a gift while prizes will be awarded for first, second and third place winners. For those who enjoy a- little less strenuous contest, the watermelon seed spitting is for you. For 25 cents, you non fair receive a piece of watermelon from which you save the best 3 seeds to use in one of the four different classes. In the past, this has been a messy, but refreshing, competition. A real favourite among fair -goers is the baby show. There is a class for babies under 4 months, 4 to 8 months and 8 to 12 months as well as a class for twins. Prizes are awarded and each baby receives a gift, compliments of Gerber Baby Foods Ltd. Whether you're in great shape or not -so - great condition, you'll be sure to find a con- test just right for you at the Dungannon Fair, August 15 and 16. Even if you don't participate, all of the competitions can be classed as spectator sports too,. so come to Dungannon Fair and get involved for a really hot time.
