Hard to believe that it's just about time for the Benton County Fair.  Every yeat it happens the first week in August.  And here we are.  The Benton County Fair is next week in Sauk Rapids.

The great thing about the Benton County Fair is that it's basically right here in our back yard.  And it's a free fair! And when I say it's a free fair, that is referring to the admission price.  There is no cost for admission.  There is, however, a ticket price for the Grandstand shows.  This time there is a rodeo!

Usually the demolition derby is one of the most popular events that happen at the Benton County Fair.  People love to see old beater cars get all smashed up.  It's sort of like bumper cars with actual cars and no bumper.

Of course, when you finish with the events in the Grandstand, you can also enjoy the beer garden stage with lots of great music every night of the fair.
