Do you dance, sing, or play an instrument? If yes, the place to be is the Pierce County Fairgrounds, on Thursday, August 8th. The Pierce County Fair Talent Show will be featured again on Thursday during the Fair this year at 6:00 p.m.
The Pierce County Fair is seeking amateur entertainers. All types of talent are encouraged including vocal, instrumental, dramatic readings, skits and dance. We are welcoming residents from St. Croix County to compete in our talent show as well.
There will be two divisions in each competition. The junior division is for those entering eighth grade and under and the senior division includes contestants entering the ninth grade through adult. The preliminary contests will be held in the Picnic Shelter on Thursday evening, August 8th starting at 6:00 p.m. 1st and 2nd places will be awarded in each division from each community show with every participant receiving a participation ribbon. First place will advance to the finals held on Saturday, August 10th at 11:00 a.m. In the finals, cash prizes of $125 and $50 will be awarded to the first and second place winners in each division.
