Georgia State Fair is the Place to Find Good Food and Fun
The Georgia State Fair is held in good old Macon, Georgia during the latter half of September through to the very beginning of October. Visitors will be glad to learn that half of the earnings taken in by the fair?s organizers, The Exchange Club of Macon, goes to charities. This is a wonderful way to have fun and feel like you?ve helped to support a charity.
Creative Living is not only a way to enjoy life but its an entire section of competitions held at the fair. Not only does the Creative Living section have the traditional food preserving competition and embroidery but you can find such fun competitions as Holiday Decorating for Christmas, Easter, Halloween and Independence Day or even the Paint by Numbers competition. If you think you can follow directions and paint or draw in the lines you are a shoe in for that ten dollar 1st place prize. On the last day of the fair there is usually the infamous Clogging Competition. Clogging is a form of dance in which the dancers use their feet and special wooden soled shoes to stomp on the floor in rhythmic dance moves. You?ll find yourself caught up in the fast paced tempos.
For the hungry, the concession area will be your first stop or maybe stops plural. At the fair you?ll find yourself surrounded with popular foods of all sorts, Shaved Potatoes, Corn on the Cob, Boiled Peanuts, BBQ Chicken and Belgian Waffles. Of course you can find the fun fair food like Cotton Candy, Pizza, and Funnel Cakes!
There are lots of eating contests and food competitions at this fair. Visitors can enter into the Donut Eating Contest one day and the Hotdog Eating Contest the next. Plus later on that day you can return and join the Pizza Eating Contest, but don?t forget about the Chicken Wing Contest, the Fried Green Tomato Eating Contest, and the Corn on the Cob eating contest. Take a break from your own competitions to watch the Firehouse Chili Cook-Off; don?t get too close as some of the seasoning tend to singe your eyebrows.half to the east.
