It’s the time of year when the country comes to town and
the Montgomery County Agricultural Fair sets up shop at the fairgrounds in Gaithersburg.
This year, the fair runs from August 14 to 22 with exhibits, food, rides, entertainment, (gates open from 3 p.m. to midnight Friday; 10 a.m. to midnight Saturday through end of Fair), animals (can be seen beginning Sunday through end of Fair from noon to closing) and loads of friendly people.
Cost is $10; children 11 and under are free. There’s also free same day re-admission if you get your hand stamped at the gate before departing.
