The Wahkiakum County Eagle - Established as The Skamokawa Eagle in 1891

Greetings from the fair office. Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. The fairgrounds will be a busy place this year. We have several events that will be taking place out here. On February 1 the fair board will hold a Valentine's Bingo; the doors open at 5 p.m., and bingo starts at 6 p.m. The cost is $10 for three cards. There will be a raffle table full of wonderful prizes.

Then on February 8 is the monthly flea market. If you haven't been to one you are missing out; we have lots of treasures for everyone. Also the fair has been donated an estate and will have their sale that same day. Tables for the flea market are only $10. If you are interested or would like one just leave a message at the fair office (360)795-3480.

Looking ahead we will hold the 2nd Annual "Cruzin to the Fair" on May 30. Also the Silver Buckle Series will be happening. The Fair Board is receiving a grant from WSDA for new doors on the Lions Club booth and the Food Court. This is super exciting. The WSDA had 2 million to give out to fairs across the state; they received 4 million in applications and we received $13,527.00, which is almost the total amount we asked for. Check out our facebook page and become a friend; we post all events on there.
