The 158th Drayton Fair runs Aug. 8 to 10 featuring a theme of Tractors Big and Small, Come and See Them All.
New on the schedule for 2014 is an antique tractor display, which runs throughout Saturday. All makes of tractors, big and small will be on display courtesy of local collectors.

Also on Saturday, at 1pm the garden tractor pull will begin, followed by the pet show at 2pm and baby show at 4pm.
The event also features an OTTPA Tractor and Truck Pull Saturday night beginning at 6pm and a demolition derby on Sunday afternoon. Admission prices for the fair are adults $10; 12 and under free. Weekend passes for adults: $25.
Family passes, new to the fair this year, are $25 for a family of four. The local fair is always a true celebration of local agriculture and community spirit and no doubt local residents and visitors are in for another fine weekend a the fairgrounds.
