The Contra Costa County Fair opened today with a ribbon cutting ceremony provided by the Antioch Chamber of Commerce to go along with lots of smiles as children anxiously awaited the doors opening.
In front of a crowd of a couple hundred, staff from Congressman Jerry McNerney and Assemblyman Jim Frazier’s office were on hand to present certificates while Antioch Mayor Wade Harper reflected on what the fair meant to him as a child and how its “good, clean, family fun”.
Here are some photographs from the opening ceremony at 11:45 am.
