NORWICH – The Chenango County Fair will once again play host to its annual Talent Competition.

The event will take place in the entertainment tent on Saturday August 15, 2015 at noon. The time of the event has changed since being listed in previous ads.

“We originally had the event scheduled for 1:00 p.m. but due to some conflicts in scheduling we all decided to bump up the time to 12:00 p.m.,” said Terri Jackson spokesperson for the Talent Competition.

The event will feature two divisions in the competition, a Mini Contest for the 12 and under division and the Talent Hunt made up of the 13 and over division.

There will be four categories for each of these two divisions, as well as prizes for first, second, and third place. The categories for each age division are: Vocal, Instrumental, Variety, and Dance, as well as a Best of Show award for the overall competition.

Last year’s Talent Competition saw Amy Branham of Oxford in the 13 and over division win awards for the Variety category as well as the best of show award, as she was playing guitar while also singing. “Amy has talked about coming back this year for the talent show but hasn’t registered yet, a lot of people register late, right before the competition, so there is still time,” said Jackson.
