What’s happening at Daze this year

Lots of fun for the whole family!  Everybody loves a parade, and this year’s is promising to be a good one.  Following the parade, head over to the Park & Ride lot for a special exhibition of the caballos bailadores (dancing horses).  The Daze Zucchini Bake-Off is returning this year by popular demand.  The Little Miss Benton City competition is heating up with nine girls vying for the title this year, and there’ll be some great entertainment at the variety show.  Be sure to check out some really nice arts and crafts while the kids enjoy the petting farm and games and activities throughout the day.  Watch contestants catch some air at the skateboard exhibition at the skate park then you won’t want to miss the bed races on Dale Street next to City Park at 5 pm, this was a real kick last year!  Then, back over to the stage for an evening of karaoke.  Bingo will run all day at the Community Center, and the day will end with the big Daze raffle prize drawing at 9 pm.

Cowboy up with all the weekend happenings out at the Benton Co. Jr. Fair & Rodeo grounds, on Hayes Road off OIE.  Friday evening kicks off the Daze events with a cow penning competition.  “Beauty and the Beast” is the theme for Saturday night with some top-notch barrel racing and bull riding.  Then wrap things up with family fun and horseplay starting at 10 am on Sunday.
