Been craving a deep-fried Oreo cookie all year but didn’t know where to find one? Well, wonder no more. The San Diego County Fair is returning June 10 through July 4, and this year it promises to serve up much more than just your deep-fried snack treats that may or may not come on a stick.
\u201cCualquiera a quien le guste divertirse deber\u00eda venir\u201d, dijo Steve Miller, representante de la Feria del Condado de San Diego.
Since the theme of this year’s fair is “Ride the Tide to Fun,” it will feature entertainment and exhibits on water and marine life issues. This year, the fair has partnered with world-renowned artist Wyland, whose marine life murals appear around San Diego. Wyland will be at the fair June 10 through 17, painting one of his “whaling wall” murals on the east side of the AgriFair Building, one of two new permanent structures at the fairgrounds that will be dedicated this month.
Wyland will also hold daily activities for children, during which they can paint alongside the artist while learning about conservation and environmental responsibility. Miller said that Wyland, known as an “environmental artist,” frequently works with children to promote environmental awareness at a young age.
The thread of respecting the environment is woven throughout the fair. In addition to a Straw Bale House and exhibits on environmentally friendly building, there will be solar electric-power demonstrations, a natural fiber fashion show on June 10, and the seventh annual Enviro Fair during opening weekend.
The Surfrider Foundation is also offering free fair tickets to the first 200 volunteers who show up for each of their beach clean-up days:
“\u00a2 Saturday, June 10, at Fletcher Cove in Solana Beach at 9 a.m.
“\u00a2 Wednesday, June 21, south of the pier in Oceanside at 6 p.m.
“\u00a2 Wednesday, June 21, Mission Beach at Belmont Park at 6 p.m.
“\u00a2 Wednesday, June 21, at Crystal Pier in Pacific Beach at 9 a.m.
Tambi\u00e9n como novedad en la feria de este a\u00f1o, habr\u00e1 varias caracter\u00edsticas, que incluyen un desfile diario de moda en traje de ba\u00f1o que rastrea la evoluci\u00f3n del traje de ba\u00f1o, un espect\u00e1culo diario de buceo de piratas en duelo, una exhibici\u00f3n de encuentros con la vida marina, espect\u00e1culos diarios de artes marciales chinas y el Viva El Mariachi!

Como siempre, una variedad de actos musicales se presentar\u00e1n en la feria, incluida una nueva serie de conciertos Paddock a mitad de semana y a altas horas de la noche. Los conciertos comienzan a las 9 pm y contar\u00e1n con blues los martes, rock cl\u00e1sico los mi\u00e9rcoles y jazz los jueves.
As far as fair fare goes, some of the classics ” like Aussie Potato Chips, funnel cake and turkey legs ” are returning this year, along with some new additions like Pork Chop on a Stick, Frito Bowls, deep-fried avocados and deep-fried green olives. San Diego Medical Services Enterprise, the City of San Diego’s 9-1-1 paramedic program, will be providing emergency medical services for the fair and will be conveniently located near some of these food vendors.
