The 2012 Multnomah County Fair takes place on Memorial Day Weekend at Portland’s historic Oaks Park. The fair celebrates 106 years this year.
Seriously, don’t miss this! Heather and I had a blast at the 2010 fair – what’s not to like about red necks, funnel cakes, and award winning vegetables? And bunnies!? And this year you can have your photo taken, for free, with a 9 foot tall bigfoot!
Strengthen your urban kids’ immune systems at the E. coli petting zoo, pony rides, pig races, and the Alpaca Pavilion. And the exotic animal exhibit is bigger than ever!
Of course there will also be vendors, food booths, traditional fair exhibits, a talent show, live music, and the Oaks Park thrill rides – don’t miss a chance to ride Looping Thunder, Portland’s, uh, biggest roller coaster! 😉
Nigel the Camel is back again this year!
The fair is open from noon until 7 p.m. each day – Saturday, May 26 through Monday, May 28. Admission, and parking, is free!
