COLUMBIA (WACH) -- Families from across the Midlands enjoying themselves at the 16th annual Sparkleberry County Fair.

The event featured a variety of activities like the classic car show, a Native American display and the Parade of Power with antique cars and tractors.

The two day fair ending Saturday took place at the Clemson Extension across the street from Village of Sandhill.

All proceeds go to local schools in the form of scholarships and grants.

Fair organizers pride themselves on being the only fair in the state where guests get educated and take part in demonstrations from the past.

WACH Fox news TV personalities were at the fair handing out goodies taking pictures and signing autographs.
