Vermont State Fair annual Snowmobile Festival is here

Saturday, Feb. 19 — RUTLAND — The Vermont State Fair’s 3rd annual snowmobile festival will be held at the Vermont State Fairgrounds at 175 South Main St. [Route 7] in Rutland on Feb. 19 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. In 2021, we had over 120 vintage and newer models on display. This year with out-of-state sleds coming we expect to have many more. Judging is at 10-11 a.m. The parade is at noon and awards are at 2 p.m. Entering and bringing snowmobiles is free and open to the public, as is admission.

Snowmobiles will be able to ride around the historic oval race track throughout the day. Pre-entry of sleds must be done by Feb. 15 at 7 p.m. in order to be judged. Sleds can still come that are not pre-entered as well, but will not be eligible for judging and be displayed separately.

A basic food concession will be on grounds. Pop’s Fresh Kettle Corn will be made and sold on-site by Lee and Deb Perry from The Barn at White Rocks.

This event is a great family event and the Vermont State Fair hopes this show will continue to be a special day for our community. Mark your calendars for Feb. 19, 2022!

Contact Andrea if you would like to be a part of the show at 802-345-9257 or acenterlinefarm@aol.com with any questions for year 2022.
