The 169th Big Butler Fair will open doors to fairgoers on Friday, June 27, at 11 a.m.

All kinds of classic activities are returning to the fair, which runs through July 5, from the traditional demolition derby to the newer barnyard cackle review, an animatronic and educational show featuring chickens.

Other entertainment ranges from shows featuring wood carving and pottery demonstrations to hypnotists and rock ‘n’ roll-themed stunts.

Carnival rides, which has been run by Powers Great American Midway for around 30 years, are back in full swing as well.
