Step 200 years back in time at the 27th Annual Fair at New Boston on Sept 5 - 6. Located just west of Springfield, Ohio, this nationally recognized event promises Colonial Era fun for the entire family. Everything about this event creates the illusion of time travel to 1790 - 1810. The music, entertainment, clothing, methods of cooking, foods served, merchandise booths, and equipment used by the artisans are juried (or judged) to assure authenticity to the period. Meet heroes of the frontier. Join the audience and share in the hearty laughter at Cheapside. Explore the marketplace and unique shops. Join in an 18th century dance. Visit a Woodlands Indian Village of the time period. Relax in a colonial tavern while listening to music of the colonial era. Thrill to the boom of the full-sized Revolutionary War cannon. Each day ends with the excitement of a battle reenactment! The fair is held in historic George Rogers Clark Park, just west of Springfield on State Route 4. Gates will open at 10 a.m. - and close at 6 p.m., rain or shine. Admission is $8 for adults, $3 for children aged 6-11, and ages 5 and under are admitted free. Admission for military active duty is $5 with ID. Parking is free and plentiful. For further information see the website at www.grcha.org or call 937-882-9216.
