Two new events at the Deltana Fair
Is it that time of year again? After a long winter of being stuck in the house due to freezing cold temperatures and a Spring full of rain its time to get outside and find something fun for the whole family to do. The Deltana Fair is the perfect place.
The Friends of Delta Agriculture have seized the opportunity to bring to Delta a rare event for Alaskans. Many of those who grew up in the lower 48, remember Tractor Pulls and Lumber Jack events. Or, like myself, have heard family members reminiscing about the “good ole’ days”. Reminisce and wonder no more!
The Friends of Delta Agriculture will be hosting these two unique events this year at the Deltana Fair, July 28th-30th. A group of avid tractor lovers from North Pole and Fairbanks will be joining local participants in the first ever “Delta Tractor Pull”. An added bonus will be the kid’s “Peddle Tractor Pull” for children 8 and younger. Prizes will be awarded to every kid that participates with a special “Tractor Pull” hat for the “big kids”.
If you are interested in competing please contact Jeff and Carol McNabb at (907) 895-1936 or Russ and Jeannie Pinkleman at (907) 895-5250.
Many of you may have seen or participated in the “Lumber Jack Challenge” at the Friendly Frontier Days or the Fourth of July Celebration. The Challenge consists of cross-cut saw and the axe throwing competitions. The finals will be at the Deltana Fair and include a “Hot Saw” event in which participants will have an opportunity to show off their own gas powered chain saws. All events are open to men and women ages 16 and up, with the exception of the Hot Saw event, which is for ages 18, and up. Prizes will be awarded for the winners of each event. There will be a grand prize drawing of a chainsaw donated by Rod’s Saw Shop of Fairbanks.
For more information please contact Adam McNabb at (907) 895-1035 or Sam Dighton at (907) 895-4186.Excitement is just around the corner, so if your sick of moose scouting or dumpster chicken chasing and looking for something new and exciting to take the family to, then look for us at the Deltana Fair this year by the livestock barns, and be sure to stop by and check out the rip-roarin’ action.

Great community news.
Why not use a headline that says what are the events?
"Two new events" could be "Tractor pull drivers, lunberjacks needed at Fair"
Don't use "and" as in "ractor pull drivers and lunberjacks". just use a comma.
On DNW is ther any other Fair besides Deltana?
Make headlines fun, interesting.
