Kids Day a Winner at Sand & Sage Fair

3 year olds over heard discussing the petting zoo at Prowers County Fair Grounds today revealed the essence of cows. “They moo loud.” While little pigs, calves and llama/alpaca drew a crowd, child chasing turtles scared them away. Treats at the fair grounds and many activities, including Color Pages passed out by the Big Timbers Transportation Museum entice children and parents to return to the fair on Saturday for more fun activities to come. ************************** Be sure to stop in to the Book Depot downtown Lamar for Grand Opening, this week. *************************** Don’t miss the Sand & Sage Fair, FREE Barbeque with Rodeo Tickets on Friday and Saturday. This feed, traditionally put on by the Prowers County Sheriff’s Department and served by the Lamar Noon Lyons is to die for. Make your choice of Pork on Friday or Beef on Saturday and enjoy the Rodeo.

Sand & Sage Fair – Blow OUT Colorado

When it comes to county fairs, Prowers County always struts some serious stuff. Animals show in the Pavillion, dressed in their summer finest, with glossy shining coats and happy personalities. One little girl was heard describing show turkeys as “handsome” and a young steer was declared “spectacular”, but the best comes from the ooing and ahing of little children allowed to pet goats, sheep, and bunnies in their cages.

Sand & Sage Fair and Rodeo – Lamar, Colorado

Parade and Rodeo Dates are not the same. I’ve noted this elsewhere on the site, but I thought it might be good to make a note of the differences here, so you could find them if you’re driving in from out of town. Sand & Sage Parade will be Saturday, August 8, 2009 – 10 AM (they didn’t change that) so get up and bring the kiddies out to the parade. We have some special events and plans for this year’s parade going on, and you won’t want to miss them. Come on out and join us for a fun and exciting time seeing neighbors again. Sand & Sage Rodeo will take place on the following Friday and Saturday nights (August 14 & 15, 2009) at the Sand & Sage Fair Grounds. Parking is in direct competition with the World Series Ball Park, and they have guarded parking areas. The county has cleared another parking area on the west side of 9th Street for more parking and will have the usual parking available north of the Pavilion.
