First, Barnyard Party Pals is a fun, educational and true petting zoo family experience that allows guests an up-close, hands-on farm and exotic animals from around the globe.
“Little did we know when we started in 2013, our collection of barnyard and exotic animals that our passion would one day become our livelihood,” said owner Luke Schonfeld. “All of our Critter Crew babies are hand fed with tender loving care and all who visit are welcome to hug, pet, feed and mingle with all of our cuddly barnyard critters.”

All payments should be made no later than July 31 in order for checks to be written to 4-H’ers.
The success of the 4-H Livestock Auction is due to the generosity of the 4-H family, neighbors, volunteers and community business leaders. The community’s participation positively influences the futures of hundreds of youth.
Barnyard Party Pals will be available Monday through Saturday in the Event Center area throughout each day for children and adults of all ages.
Secondly, Seal Lion Splash will have shows throughout the fair. Described as a unique educational show with a splash, guests are invited to come witness the animals’ natural behavior, as well as their antics when they are encouraged.
The sea lions will amaze the crowd as they balance balls, shoot hoops, dance, perform handstands and show their pretty smiles. After the show, guests will have the opportunity to get a fun photo with a sea lion. This is the only show in the U.S. that features both California and South American sea lions.
Shows will take place in the commercial tent area at 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. Monday; 11:30 a.m., 4:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. Tuesday; 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Wednesday; 1 p.m. 4 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Thursday; 3:30 p,m. and 7 p.m. Friday; and 1 p.m., 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday.
