We’re down to the last weekend as the Fair wraps on Monday.  

In case you haven’t done everything, seen everything and eaten everything at this year’s Fair, here’s The Hound’s abbreviated State Fair can’t miss list:

The history and pageantry of the Iroquois village, a revered Fair tradition, tops the list. Don’t leave the Fair without seeing the fascinating dancing atop the Turtle Mound, daily at 11 a.m., 4 and 7 p.m.

If you haven’t gone into the Grange Building this year, don’t miss visiting the State Fair History exhibit. It should be an annual stop on the route for every Fair visitor, though it’s generally updated only a little from year to year. There’s plenty of history and much of it is on display. Still, it’s one of those features where you may notice something different every year.

The stately Agriculture Museum is an architectural work of art full of fascinating artifacts and demonstrations of various old-time farming and homemaking skills. The Carriage Museum next door features a working blacksmith shop and a variety of wheeled vehicles that predate cars.

Among other highly-recommended favorites are Hawk Creek Wildlife Center’s winged wonders in the State Park area and the festive Pan African Village. The debut Fair appearance of the Canine Stars Stunt Dog Show can’t miss with dog lovers

Some livestock has departed, but there’s still enough around to fascinate and charm visitors, while the final performances of the Circus Hollywood (1, 4 and 7 p.m.) are great fun for all ages.

Of course, many fans arrive focused on one or two last meals, following their traditions to favorite vendors and sampling new treats.

If you haven’t seen the sand sculpture, where have you been? It’s in the Center of Progress.

It would be great if the weather is ideal for the final three days, but don’t let heat or rain keep you away. Go in prepared with appropriate clothing and a positive attitude and you’ll do just fine.

The final weekend is usually hectic with big crowds of fans getting their Fair fix. Arrive early and bring your patience.
