The Chattooga County Agricultural Fair opened on Thursday evening and continues through Sunday, August 29th.  The fair is taking place at the Chattooga County Ag Building and Summerville Middle School property on Middle School Drive just off Highway 100 in Summerville.

At the fair on Thursday, visitors were able to enjoy some great food from multiple food vendors and a new attraction this year – helicopter rides.  The rides proved popular with guests on Thursday.  The cost is $20 per person.
