Fair to Close Early

Washington County Fair Announces the Fair will be Closed on Sunday

GREENWICH — The meeting room at the Washington County Fair was full Friday morning, while the board of directors approved a plan to close the fair a day early due to the predicted path of Hurricane Irene.

Fair president, R. Harry Booth said, “Our number one priority is safety; safety of our fairgoers, safety of our participants and safety of our livestock.”  “This is the first time I remember the fair closing early; we’ve been rained out before, but never made the decision in advance.” 

“We will continue to monitor the storm’s path and adjust the plan accordingly” said Mark St. Jacques, fair manager.   “The forecast for Friday and Saturday are for perfect fair weather and we hope folks will come join us on these days.”

The fair will run normal hours of operation on Saturday with gates opening at 9:00 AM and the buildings closing at 10:00 PM.  Saturday has a full schedule of activities.  The NYTPA Sanctioned Tractor Pull will take place on the Motor Sports Arena at 1 and 7:00 PM.  Horse Gymkhana, Draft Animal Versatility, various judging events will run throughout the day and later in the day the Dry Town Drifters will perform in the Entertainment Tent.   The carnival rides will run all day along with a full schedule of family entertainment.

Historic Schoolhouse Award Ceremony this Weekend - May 7, 2011

A public dedication of the historic marker and a ceremony highlighting the Landmark Schoolhouse Award for The Perkins Hollow One Room School will take place at1:00 PM Saturday, May 7^th, 2011 at the schoolhouse located on the Washington County Fair Farm Museum complex, 392 Old Schuylerville Road in Greenwich, New York.

Through its National Schoolhouse Registry Program, the Country School Association of America (CSAA) recognizes school buildings that contribute to the appreciation and understanding of the country school experience and their unique architectural and historical heritage.  Markers are awarded to school buildings which are at least 50 years old, that have been preserved, restored, renovated or reconstructed to retain the integrity of their original design, and are well maintained.

The Perkins Hollow Schoolhouse is a preserved time capsule representing school buildings of rural New York during the last half of the 19^th century.  Built in 1853 in the town of Salem the rustic structure with its wide board desks and seats served as the education facility for local children until it closed in 1910.   The schoolhouse with original furnishings, maps and teaching aids along with the woodshed and outhouses was donated and moved to the Farm Museum in 1977. 

The Farm Museum will be open 10am-3pm join us for the marker dedication, a presentation of Perkins Hollow School history, visit the schoolhouse, check out school memorabilia, and learn about the Country School Association of America.  

The Washington County Fair Farm Museum and Perkins Hollow School offer a variety of school programs and field trips. For more information call 518-692-2464 or see the website www.washingtoncounty fair.com.
