Allentown Fair book goes virtual
The 2020 Great Allentown Fair may be canceled, but that doesn’t mean your awesome garden tomatoes, the great photo you took during your hike last month or your child’s masterpiece Lego set shouldn’t be on full display and compete against others to win a coveted 2020 Great Allentown Fair blue ribbon.
The Great Allentown Fair is now collecting photos of entries for a select number of both adult and youth (ages 19 and under) categories for virtual display on the Fair’s Facebook, Twitter and Instagram platforms.
Contestants may submit a photo of their entry to allentownfair@gmail.com by Aug. 30.
