The Clearfield County Fair made it’s long-awaited return today after having to cancel in 2020.

The full complement of rides, food and fun were back once again.

The President of the fair, David Franson, says they’re excited to come back after a period of tough times.

“We’re so happy to be back and be able toput the fair on again this year,” he exclaimed. “It was a rough year for everybody, especially in the community, and we’re just glad to be back and be able to provide something fun for the community.”

Last year was not a total loss; they managed to have a small event in its place, but it wasn't nearly the same.

“We were able to have a small food court where people would just come over and just were able to support some local vendors. We had about 15-20 vendors here but it was nothing like the fair.”

Franson hopes that with a good forecast in store, their yearly tradition can make up for lost time.

“Our weather looks really good this week and I expect a great turnout and I think that people are just ready to get out and do something,” he said. “They’re excited to be able to support the fair and come out in the community, so we’re excited.”

The fair will run through August 7th.
