BONDVILLE — The 211th Bondville Fair will be held Friday, Aug. 22, Saturday, Aug. 23 and Sunday, Aug. 24. It is the oldest continuously operating fair in Vermont. It is known for being a real family affair with booths for artisans and crafters, as well as sponsoring horse and tractor pulls, pony rides, live animals, a kiddie tractor pull, pie-eating contests, entertainment, and many other fun and interesting activities.

The fair's arts and crafts coordinator is looking for quality crafters and artisans to display and sell original works — no manufactured items allowed. Each crafter or artisan must provide own booth (or tent), tables and chairs since this is a rain or shine fair. For the three days of the fair, organizers will supply a 10x10 foot space for a fee of $50 if paid by June 1, $60 if paid by July 1, or $75 after July 1 but no later than Aug. 1. Electricity can be available for an additional fee of $10. Campsites may be available on a first-come, first-serve basis.

For an application or further information, contact Estelle at 802-297-1172 or 866-516-0271. Early registration is recommended.
