By Press Release

COURT HOUSE — Ever wanted to be a part of Cape May County history? You can have your chance at this year’s 4-H Fair, which is fast approaching. The 4-H members and Cape May County Board of Agricultural members are asking for volunteers.
The Cape May Board of Agricultural Bar-B-Q dinner has been in existence since 1955. For 58 years nearly 600 fresh chickens are cooked nightly on a 40-foot long barbeque pit. More than two tons of charcoal is burned over the three-day event. And it takes a lot of hands to serve that much chicken and with your help we can make this another successful Chicken Bar-B-Q.
This year fair will take place Thurs., Fri., and Sat., July 17, 18 and 19, 2013 Public hours for the fair are noon to 9:00 p.m. each day. It being held at Rutgers 4-H fair grounds, 355 Ct. Hse. S.

They offer free shuttle to fair grounds running every 15 min. Also limited parking for a $ 5.00 donation at Atlantic Cape Community College next door to the fair grounds. We ask that there be no parking directly on the fair grounds; if you need to drop off, do so then please park at one of the above areas.
