    It's coming! The Rocky Mountain Fair has all the summer fun you could want in your own backyard. (That is, if your backyard is the Norris Perose Event Center.)

    Motorheads will rejoice at not one, not two, but three heats of demolition derby, plus the state Motocross finals! There are more than 50 rides, midway concessions, something called pig races (where they race pigs, I'm told) and a petting zoo featuring over 100 animals. There's also a circus and one heck of a music line-up featuring The Romantics, Greg Rolie (former Santana/Journey vocalist/keyboardist), The Bellamy Brothers,  contemporary-Christian acts The Sonflowerz and Rough Draft, newer acts like KaiserCartel and Under the Flood, plus home-town favorites The Jake Loggins Band, George Whitesell and His All-Stars featuring Jill Watkins, and John-Alex Mason!
