The Rochester Country Fair is seeking interested vendors for participation in the upcoming Rochester Country Fair. The Fair, now in its 15th year, features a unique mix of old-fashioned events and contests, a parade, woodsman show, tractor pulls and so much more.
This year’s “Team Spirit” Theme Fair will be held on Thursday, August 14 thru Sunday, August 17 at 65 Pine Street in Rochester. Craft vendor booth spaces are available for a fee of $125, while food vendor spaces start at $350. Space is limited and is given on a first come, first serve basis, with preference given to vendors selling unique and home made items. Applications and registration information can be found on the Fair’s website at www.rochesterma.com or emailing rcfvendor@comcast.net.
For those interested in visiting the fair, it will offer many unique old-fashioned events for the entire family. You will need to come prepared if you wish to participate, though. You must bring your own frog to compete in the Frog Race and certainly don’t wear your favorite shirt if you wish to participate in the Pie Eating Contest! Other children’s events will include a Diaper Derby, Nerf Olympics and a Pedal Tractor Pull just to name a few. For the young at heart, the Fair will offer Truck and Tractor Pulling, a Horseshoe Contest, Live Wrestling featuring former WWE Hall of Famer Tito Santana and Live Music by the John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band!
Admission to the Fair is $4 on Thursday and $5 on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Children age 5 and under get in free. There is no fee for parking. Additional event information can be obtained on the Fair’s website, www.rochesterma.com.
