Visiting State Fairs – 2008

Summer is around the corner and for many people, that means it’s time to check out the state fair(s). When I was a kid, I remember going to the California State Fair at the Cal Expo in Sacramento, California to eat candy, see a bunch of animals and just hang out with good friends during summer break. If you have kids or little nieces and nephews, you might want to take them for some fun too.

Here at Wanderus, we’ve done the research for you and here are the links to this year’s state fairs with dates:
