PORT ANGELES — Today is the deadline for theme contest entries for the 2016 Clallam County Fair.

Entries must be sent to the Clallam County Fair Theme Committee, 1608 W. 16th St., Port Angeles, WA 98363.

When a theme is picked by the selection committee, the winner will receive $100, two fair-day passes and two fair T-shirts.

The theme must be limited to seven words or fewer, and “Clallam County” cannot be used in the slogan.

Ten entries per person are allowed.

Each entry must have the entrant’s name, address and phone number.

Only residents of Clallam County are eligible to enter. There is no age limit.

The winning entry will be chosen on the basis of creativity, originality, fair appropriateness and ease of decorating and displaying the theme.

All entries become the property of the Clallam County Fairgrounds, and the Fair Committee reserves the right to revise the theme if necessary.

The dates of next year’s fair are Aug. 18-21.

This year’s theme was “Fun for the Whole Herd!,” submitted by Gayle Taylor.
