The Niagara County Fair kicked off this morning with the famed annual Farm City Breakfast. It continues through Sunday evening.

The theme for this year’s fair is “A Good Thing Growing – Celebrating Niagara County Agriculture”. Earlier this year, CCE held its annual fair logo contest, open to Niagara County youth age 5 to 19 years. The winner, Matthew McAuley of Lockport, was awarded his $100 prize during this morning's breakfast.

Matthew is a 15-year-old sophomore at St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute. He is a member of the Science Olympiad, intramural bowling teams and art club. Outside of school, Matthew spends his time as a Life Scout with Boy Scout Troop 4 in Lockport at St. John the Baptist Parish and the Knights of Columbus Columbian Squires. His hobbies include cycling, drawing and camping.

The other top 10 entrants of the contest were also recognized during the Farm City Breakfast and all the submitted logos will be displayed throughout the fair.

Other highlights of the fair today include the Niagara University Repertory Theatre (N.U.R.T.), performing at 2 p.m. and the annual tractor parade, to be held at 7 p.m.
