Comber Fair Truly Agricultural

The Comber Fair is underway this weekend, with a few new events taking place at the fairgrounds.

But, fair board president Bob Hornick says the event never changes too much. "Comber doesn't change that much from year to year, except our exhibits are up about 30% this year. Our demolition derby is one of the largest in southwestern Ontario with over 100 cars on Sunday."

Hornick expects a lot of people to also come out for the mud wrestling later today.

As well, the parade today will close Hwy. 77 from Hwy. 401 to County Rd. 46, beginning at 11am.
