2016 Fair Dates
September 25th thru October 1st
The very first Cumberland Fair was held for two days on October 10th and 11th of 1868 in the center of town in back of what is now Greely Junior High School. The land was provided by Capt. Enos Blanchard. His house is now Doc's Cafe and Marketplace on the corner of Tuttle Road and Main Street. The ladies of the town had an opportunity to show all who attended what marvelous cooks they were, and what fine needlework their fling fingers could provide. Farmers brought their biggest and best-tasting vegetables. Those men with working steers could show off the strength and coordination of their animals at the ox pulling contest. Local horsemen raced their finest steeds on Main Street from the junction of Tuttle Road and Blanchard Road to Greely Road. And so it began.
