Utica Day Fair - Utica

Sunday, September 09, 2012

Utica Day Fair features booths of arts, crafts and food. Home made pie and coffee available for a small fee. Inclement weather site is the Hobson School. Cozy but friendly!! Raffle includes items from each of our members that have been incorporated into many gift baskets. In addition the sponsoring group, the Utica Women's Club, makes a handmade quilt for the major raffle prize.

This event has grown from a flea market, taking place from the back of your car in 1975 , to a very high quality display of exceptionally talented artisans......still from their vehicles. Games and prizes for children.

Twelve years ago, Lewistown began their own Chokecherry Festival and set their dealers at parking meters spots on Main street, on the day before Utica Day. Many dealers from out of state take in both shows, benefiting us both.

The Montana Bale Trail: What the Hay Contest, produced by the Friends of the Hobson Library is held in conjunction with the Utica Day Fair. Over 50 works of art created from hay and straw will be on display along MT State Highway 239, and 541 which loops from Hobson through Utica to Windham. The Utica Women's Clubhouse is located south of the highway; follow the signs. We see a lot of traffic and welcome friends from far and near every year. Socializing is great. Utica has proven to be a gathering place where you can catch up with old friends. Great family fun!
