If you haven't had the chance (or the gas money) to make it to the Florida State Fair, then next week is your chance to enjoy all things deep fried and/or thrill ride right here in Pasco County. The 65th annual Pasco County Fair starts up Monday, February 20, 2012 at the county fairgrounds in Dade City and runs through Sunday, February 26.
Gate admission is $8 for adults and $5 for children aged 6-12. Children 5 years old and younger are FREE! Unlimited ride wristbands will be available daily as well - discounted advance sale wristbands are available at participating Pasco County Walgreens locations through tomorrow, February 19.
As always, there will be deep fried food, livestock barns, and entertainment (racing pigs, anyone?). For more information, including a schedule of events and a listing of performers, visit the Pasco County Fair's website.
