Other auction items include a handmade doll house, a brand new generator, furniture, and much, much more!

The fair is fun for all ages!   Visit the bargain booths, play bingo, take a turn “dunking a doc” at the dunking booth, eat some delicious corn on the cob, fried dough, cotton candy, burgers and fries, or a gourmet meal.  The kids can enjoy a pony ride, face painting, games, and more!

For those born at Grace Cottage, join in the Baby Parade, with prizes for the 1st 50 Grace Cottage babies who sign up for the parade at the blue tent in front of the elementary school.  (Not born at GCH? “Valley Kids” born in the West River Valley from 2002 to today are invited to join the parade, too!).  The Baby Parade also awards prizes for oldest, youngest and to the person who came from farthest away.

End your day at the Fair with a delicious chicken barbecue dinner, accompanied by the music of the Bills Band.

This year’s fair also includes an Arts & Crafts Show, which will be held in the Townshend Church. All fine arts and crafts pieces in the show will be for sale, with a portion of the proceeds going to benefit Grace Cottage Hospital.

The Grace Cottage Hospital Auxiliary Fair Day is a major fundraiser that helps the hospital purchase needed equipment. All of the proceeds from the day, including proceeds from the White Elephant sale, book booth, food, bingo, raffles, jewelry booth, and the all-day auction, go directly to the hospital.

There is no admission fee and parking is free! Come & enjoy the fair. For information about Fair Day, call 365-9992 or 365-9109.
