The Worth County Fair is happening this week through Sunday at the Worth County Fairgrounds.

As usual, the fair will be centered around a number of different FFA and 4-H events spanning multiple categories.

Entertainment will range from different live acts such as Borderline Band and a rodeo, to a hypnotist and a Buddy Holly tribute. The fair queen contest will take place once again.

Several free meals will be available, with different meals being sponsored by Farmers State Bank and NSB Bank. There are also a few barbecues and pork chop dinners planned.

The fair will finish up with a 4-H teen dance.
