Great. Some girl got little to no money for her pig, and some rich brats parrents paid 9,880 for…Read More hers. Think they coulda helped out another kid?? Ffa sales have turned into a big "show boat sale" for the rich kids to be able to brag. Pisses me off!!

Sorry William, but you obviously were not there to understand the meaning behind many of these…Read More animals going so high in price. I disagree that it has become a showboat sale. Granted there are always a few kids that get a good amount for their animal, but also many others that are rewarded for marketing their animals and helping in their community.

The greatest part of this story has yet to be told.
Olivia Simpson’s goat went for such a…Read More high price because the amazing citizens of Dixon were rallying behind her after the incredible illness that has left her fighting for her life for the last two months. Olivia came down with Meningitis and Encephalitis (and several secondary illnesses) in March, and is paralyzed from the chest down; yet her gracious attitude shines through each day without fail. One of the things that kept her going and helping her to fight, was the hope of taking her goat to the Fair. While she wasn't able to make it due to her illness, her younger brother presented it for her. Olivia watched her goat sell via “FaceTime,” and said it was the best day of her life. She’s made an impact on this community like you wouldn’t believe, and when I heard her goat went for that amount, I nearly cried.

My memories of Jon Pardi were years ago when the new Dixon Senior Center opened. Jon, who was…Read More probably three or four years old, entertained everyone on the front steps area with his western singing and dance. Even at his young age we knew then that he would go far in the music industry. You have made Dixon proud, good luck to you Jon! Shirley Parsons

No, All proceeds go to the friends of the fair. The Fair has no control over how those funds are…Read More used. They are not charged rent or fee's. Granted a lot of the money is used for Fair grounds improvements.
Gary Erwin May 12, 2013 at 06:19 pm
I understood that....seems that some % ought to be considered now that the state funding has gone…Read More down. Really all I care about it the health of the Fair and Fairgrounds. I don't care about the details that much...just that it is being done right so that the Fair can continue.
Greg Coppes May 12, 2013 at 06:32 pm
In all fairness without the Friends of the Fair. I think the fall would not have survived the past…Read More 10 years.

This is something all young and old should be aware off , especially when being out in nature, as…Read More well as when walking your dog. Be sure to check you body and your pet after engaging in activity in the brush. Good subject as we near spring and summer.

Seems to be some confussion here between the Dixon May Fair held in May and the Solano County Fair…Read More held later in the summer.
Justin Cox (Editor) February 15, 2013 at 09:50 pm
You're right, Gary. This was my mistake. An earlier version of this story said these shows would be…Read More at the May Fair. That is not the case. It's the Solano County Fair. The info in the PDF is correct, but the original headline had an error.

Congratulations to FOH for your big win in SF at Battle of the Bands held at the DNA Lounge! Ryan,…Read More Dom, Dakota and Brazjae you are a top notch class act band and I'm so proud of the four of you that you beat out 50 other bands to take the win. Your hard work and
countless hours of practice have paid off. What's next for the awesome band Force if Habit? Who knows.... A headlining gig at the DNA Lounge sounds great. Dixon you should be proud of your hometown winners FOH!

Just so everyone knows: the other finalists included an '80s style dance-band, 2 scream metal…Read More bands. a '90s post-punk band and a reggae band. It's not like FOH were in their comfort zone. That said, out of 50 bands, FOH and a handful of others made it to the finals. Ultimately, our hometown band triumphed. Get your autographs now, they might be worth something in a couple of years..

I saw Les Misérables in London, in 1985, before the official opening, so I was one of the…Read More first people to see this amazing musical. I almost never go to the movies anymore, so I'll wait until the DVD comes out and I'll probably end up buying it.

I just saw it this afternoon and it is wonderful - moving, amazing musical the acting was suburb -…Read More it is a must see whenever.

I am with Gary. Leave it alone. This is Dixon and our May Fair. I feel safe at the Dixon Fair. I am…Read More sorry but I do not feel that way in Vallejo. If the Supervisors want a new Fairgrounds in Vallejo, so be it. But again dont mess with Dixon.
Jim Ernest December 21, 2012 at 03:41 am
I was just looking at City-Data.com. Fairfield and Vallejo are running at around twice the national…Read More average for murders, rapes, assaults and robberies. Dixon is about average, and Vacaville a little below the national average. I think we need to get the western half of Solano County to get a grip on their crime before we start combining activities.
suzanne cook December 22, 2012 at 02:02 pm
I say leave Dixon Fair where it is...there is already a Solano County Fair...are we not May Fair?…Read More Who in the hell wants to go to Vallejo? Too much going on there!
