DAVIS AMUSEMENTS WILL BE BRINGING THE CARNIVAL TO THE FAIRGROUNDS

The Skagit County Fairgrounds is very excited to announce that Davis Amusements will be bringing the carnival to town, not only in August for the annual fair, but in April for the “Garage Sale, Auction and More”. The carnival will start on Thursday March 31st and run through April 3rd. Hours of operation will be 10:00 a.m. until 9:00 p.m.

The “Garage Sale, Auction and More” has added the auction on Sunday. Many great items will be auctioned off at 1:30 at a live auction. Larry Marty with Western Auction Company has been selected to handle the auction. Silent auction items will be on display all day Saturday and Sunday with a closing at 3:30 on Sunday.

The Islanders, a steel drum band, will play both days along with the Salvation Army performers. Everything from Kettle Korn to Lemonade will be available to much on while shopping used, new and in between items. Over 120 vendors with a variety of items have signed up to participate. The $1.00 entry fee is good for both days as long as you bring your ticket stub back on Sunday.
