The San Benito County Fair, set for the first weekend in October, is now taking entries.
According to a fair announcement:
The San Benito County Fair has opened entries for the 2015 event.  Fair Horse Show activities happen September 25-28 and the Fair is open October 1-4.  The 2015 Exhibitor’s Handbook and Entry Forms may be found on the Fair website www.sanbenitocountyfair.com.  Paper forms are available in the Fair office for those individuals who don’t have access to computers. 
Fair entries are accepted for a wide array of departments.  Quilts, industrial arts, baked goods, junior and adult crafts, homemade beer and wine, produce, photography, fine arts, floriculture, horse show events, and livestock are just a sampling of the entry opportunities.  The San Benito County Fair is the perfect venue to showcase the talents of local residents. 
This year poultry, rabbit, 4-H Still exhibits, and all livestock departments will exclusively accept entries using only the Online System.  Youth and parents are encouraged to consult with FFA and 4-H leaders for assistance in this streamlined process.  Fair officials are excited to announce the first double sanctioned youth rabbit show with a one-day carry-in or option to coop-in on opening day this year.
The entry deadline is Friday, September 4th.  Mailed entries will be accepted if USPS postmarked on or before September 4th, and metered mail will not be accepted unless received by the deadline date.  Online entries for the fair must be completed by midnight on September 4th.  The Fair office will open until 6 p.m. on Friday, September 4th to accept walk-in entries.  Individuals are, however, encouraged to turn in their entries early in order to ensure accuracy prior to the deadline.  Entry assistance is available daily by phone or in person.
The Fair office is located at Bolado Park Event Center, 9000 Airline Highway in Tres Pinos and open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.  The phone number is 831-628-3421.
