Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

The traditional and virtually guaranteed rainfall that often coincides with the Campbell Amusements Midway is nowhere to be seen on Saturday as hundreds are flocking to the Soo Pee Wee Arena for some long weekend fun.

With hardly a cloud in the sky, this mid-May anomaly has made the fair this weekend’s most popular spot in town as residents enjoy mouth-watering treats, entertaining carnival games, and a variety of thrilling rides.

The fair will be open until 10:30 p.m. on Saturday. Bracelets can be purchased for $40.
