Come On out and we

We at the
Santa Rosa County Fair Association would like to Invite you all to join us for our 20th Anniversary Fair, April 5 – 10, 2011!
This year at the Fair we are excited to present for the first
time in Northwest Florida, The Amazing Rainforest Experi- ence. They bring with them at least 20 different exotic ani- mals which will be included in performances and a large exhibit area. Bengal Tigers, Cougars, Asian Fishing Cat, African Serval, Capuchin Monkey, Ringtail Lemur, Boa Constrictor, Pythons, Sun Conures, different variety of Ma- caws, Umbrella Cockatoo, Yellow Nape Amazon, Coati Mundi, Artic Fox, Iguana, and an Appendix Horse just to name a few. We will also have the Magic of Lance Gifford and Com-
pany. Lance Gifford started his magical career in Billerica, Massachusetts, at a very young age. On his 12th birthday, his parents took him to a magic shop and it forever changed his life. He and his fellow performers are sure to entertain with their special brand of Prestidigitation. As always we will host our Annual Car Show, Bike Show
and 2 nights of a 7 Event Rodeo. We will have IGX Game Systems hosting new video game events with special events for Senior Citizens and Military Personnel, and we don’t want you to miss Singer & Storyteller, Tiger Tom Walsh in our ever growing Kiddie Land area. We designed this area specifically for our 42 inch and under Fairgoers. This area allows Mom and Dad to spend more time enjoy- ing their little ones and less time worrying if the fit is “just right.” We hope you will be impressed with our bigger and better
Livestock area as well. We have put a lot of time and thought into making this area like the County Fair of the Good Old Days. Our goal is to promote Agriculture through Educational Outreach and this year we think we will be do- ing just that. Our special areas in our Exhibit Hall are ever changing
every year. The imaginations and abilities of our local com- munities never cease to amaze. From canning to crafts and 4-H to American Bikers Aimed Toward Education there is something for everyone to enjoy. Musical entertainment this year includes local entertain-
ers, school and civic bands, different dance troupes and up and coming groups such as The Modern Eldorados and The Springs. We will be hosting the special members of our community
at our Exceptional Riders Roundup opening night. They will be stick pony barrel racing, calf dummy roping and Bucky Bull Riding. Round out your day with a visit to our 24 Ride Midway provided by Tip Top Rides and Entertainment, and don’t
