The KaneCountyFair returns July 12-16. Here's what to expect.
The 154th annual Kane County Fair returns this week with plenty of old favorites, along with some exciting new attractions.
The fair will feature new free shows like the Rhinestone Roper, as well as returning favorites like the pig races, the car show and 4-H shows. In recent years, Breon said the fan-favorite attractions have been the demolition derby, bull riders and the truck pull. Breon has been president of the fair for over 15 years, and has been attending the event since his childhood, when it was held in Elgin. He said his favorite attractions are the 4-H shows and exhibits, which he sees as the main reason for the fair.
"They can actually see a cow being milked," Breon said."Milk doesn't come from Jewel. It comes from a cow first, and that's one of those things that's kind of being lost." Admission: Season tickets: $25; daily: $5 Wednesday and Thursday; $10 adults and $5 kids 3-12 Friday through Sunday; free for kids younger than 3 all days. Seniors older than 62 and military members admitted for free until 5 p.m. Thursday
