Rodeo rides into town for DuPage County Fair performances

Visitors to the DuPage County Fair on Saturday got to see a little bronc ridin', a little steer wrestlin' and a whole bunch of folks in cowboy hats during two performances of the Latting Rodeo.

There will be a different type of riding on Sunday, when the fair ends its five-day run in Wheaton with a pair of demolition derby performances in the grandstand area.

The fair, which is celebrating its 61st year, runs from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday at 2015 Manchester Road. Tickets are $10 for adults and $4 for kids ages 3 through 12. To check out the full schedule of events, visit dupagecountyfair.org.
