8:00 a.m. Jr. Rabbit Show, Show Arena Open to 4-H and FFA members, ages 8 to 18, the junior rabbit show has a wide variety of breeds.

This show can bring more than 300 rabbits. 8:00 Jr. Pygmy Goat Show, Carter Building 9:00 Jr. Horse Show, Riding Arena 9:00 Jr. Dairy Showmanship, Coliseum 11:30 Jr. Dairy Products Auction, Coliseum All 4-H members showing dairy cows auction off items to raise money for 4-H.

Stop by for some great deals and help raise much needed funding. Noon Pari-Mutuel Wagering Harness Races, Grandstand If you missed this race on Tuesday, you get a second chance to test your luck at picking the winner of the standard breed racehorses. Enjoy trotters and pacers with 2 and 3 year-old fillies and colts. 4:00 p.m. Jr. Market Goat, Lamb, Rabbit & Poultry Auction, Show Arena (Or immediately following the Rabbit Show) All of the show animals from the various shows throughout the week in the market classes will be auctioned at this event. There are on average 300 small animals auctioned. This event is well supported in Wayne County knowing that the buyers receive a great deal and the money raised goes to a important cause. 7:00 Holstein Show, Coliseum This is an open show for all ages and from any area. Holsteins are known as the world's highest production dairy animal. With their history tracing back more than 2,000 years to the coastal Rhine region, they are well known for their distinctive black and white markings although some can be red and white. As with all open shows, all animals entered have to have registration papers. There will be 22 classes judged with cash and other prizes awarded. 7:00 Diesel 4x4 Truck/Tractor Pull, Grandstand Fairgoers’ enthusiasm for this event has made it a new uproarious tradition with its big full pull diesel trucks and tractors pulling a weighted transfer sled often with black smoke pouring out of vehicle’s stacks. An added element is that some of the trucks are road worthy but can still pull their weight on the track.
