coupon on their website for $2 off ride wristbands on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Sunday.

| Tractor Pull in 2009 |
We have attended Preschool Day the last two years and had a great time. In the past the fair was the first week of school so only children in preschool or under were able to attend. Since my daughter starts kindergarten this year, I am glad the fair is a week earlier and we can still attend. She loves some of the hands on activities, exploring the animal exhibits, and then enjoying the rides. We have had lunch at the fair and then stayed for the pedal pull. At 3, she needed help to make it the full length. Last year, she had no problems although she didn't win her age group.
Friday is Ladies Day and women are admitted for $5 until 1p.
Saturday is the parade in downtown Saline at noon. We love this parade. There are lots of great local groups and we always get a lot of fun Last year we got a ton of candy because it started raining right before the end and everyone was running for cover. The firemen had just started the parade and had tons of candy.
Enjoy the fair.
