The Middletown Grange Fair is in full swing and will continue Friday.

The Grange Fair is open to the public on Friday from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m. at night. The day’s festivities include a variety of entertainment and agricultural displays and demonstrations.

If you haven’t checked it out already, the Dancing Diggers, large pieces of construction equipment that move in a synchronized fashion, have been a huge hit this week at the fair.

The always popular chicken dinner will take place Friday and will cost $15 per meal. Tickets go on sale at 3:30 p.m. and often sell quickly.

The cost per a carload to enter the Grange Fair is $10. No dogs are permitted.

Forecasters at the National Weather Service are calling for partly cloudy skies and a high near 88 degrees on Friday. Temperatures will cool as evening moves in.
