LACF attracts guests from all across the country, and apparently also as far as the Dagobah system. On this sunny Saturday afternoon, R2-D2 caused a stir among adults AND children after stopping by the Hall of Heroes. As I walked around and asked people what they thought of R2-D2 being here, people were completely speechless…
Lost Children Services to the Rescue
When you were younger, did you ever get lost and thought you would never find your way back to your loved ones? I know I did, and I also know how scary this could be! I’m bringing this up because as I wandered around the Fair today, I noticed a lost child being escorted by…
Sunday Funday: Hanging out with Mojo and Friends
Since LACF will be hosting some of the most BEAUTIFUL and AMAZING animals in the world for a whole month, I thought it was time to pay a visit to our friends living in Mojo’s Wild & Crazy Lagoon…and boy, I’m happy I did! As I walked around the lagoon, I noticed families laughing, taking…
Behind-the-Scenes: The Farm at LACF
Did you know we have a Farm that grows fresh herbs, fruits and vegetables that are used as ingredients for some of the amazing food you’ll taste at LACF? We are not your average farm. Our LACF hosts explored the ins and outs of everything the Farm has to offer, eating their way through delicious samples of…
LACF Sneak Peek: Hall of Heroes
One of the exhibits we’re most excited about this year is the new Hall of Heroes exhibition! “Autobots, roll out!” You’ll discover what your own superhero strengths are (powers of the mind, body, technology etc.), walk through the history of real-life heroes and come face-to-face with some of your favorite superheroes. Those are just a…
Off-season Fair news: Giving Back
We were all saddened when we learned of the devastation the people of the Philippines have suffered from Typhoon Haiyan. Our Junior Fair Board (JFB) decided to help out. JFB members collected more than 4,000 items from donators from the local area and organized all the items to be picked up by Operation USA. …
Calves at the Fair!
We had a very exciting morning here at FairView Farms. One of our lovely cows gave birth to TWINS, born an hour apart from each other! We arrived on the scene around 11:30 a.m. so they were still slightly slimy and a little dazed and confused, but they were already trying to stand up and…
Meet Max's Barn Animal Friends
While we love our cows, goats and sheep, it’s always fun to make a new friend or two at the Fair. This year we have a brand new show called Max’s Barn Animal Friends and they are a “hoot” (pun intended). When you think of farm animals you typically think of your pigs, horses and…
America's Kids: A Living Library of Fun
If you read our blog last year, you would have been taken on a tour of America’s Kids A Living Library of Fun. It was such a hit last year that we decided to keep the same theme for 2013! We introduced a few new worlds this year too… Land of Oz A yellow brick…
Wine & dine this weekend at Fairplex
There are many things to enjoy at the Fair, wine being one of them. And spirits. And beer. No, we’re not talking your typical 12 oz. cup of Budlight, nor are we referencing the margaritas you can pick up near the grandstand (although we do recommend those options for cooling off for the 21+ crowd.)…
