Old-Fashioned Fun

The 23rd annual Clark County Fair and Rodeo runs today through Sunday in Logandale.

The next few days will be filled with carnival rides, bucking broncos, pig races, livestock shows and other traditional fair activities.

The Wrangler Million Dollar Tour makes its annual stop at the rodeo, as well. More than 500 cowboys are competing for more than $250,000 in prize money. Events include tie-down roping, steer wrestling and team roping.

The carnival rides will be open each day, with events and live entertainment taking place throughout the venue. Among the offerings will be interactive children's theater, juggling, live music, a dog show, a hypnotist, dancers and other acts.
