Food trucks, purse bingo and cornhole all part of Wattsburg weekend celebration

An eventful day filled with bingo, fair queens, cornhole and food trucks is coming to Wattsburg this weekend.

It’s the Erie County Fair’s second annual Food Trucks at the Fairgrounds at 13993 Route 8 & 89 in Wattsburg.

The event will take place May 4 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Purse bingo opens at 4:30 p.m. and begins at 6 p.m.

The second annual food truck event precedes the six-day Erie County Fair at the fairgrounds in Wattsburg on Aug. 26-31.

“It was a great turnout as last year was two days in the middle of the summer,” said Kyle Woods, an Erie County Fair board member. “We’re definitely battling other events around in the area, but we had a great turnout. We’re pairing with the purse and sportsman’s bingo this year so we’re hoping to get a larger turnout.”

The event is free, but purse bingo players must have tickets purchased in advance while bingo tickets are $35.

The fairgrounds will also be lined up with food trucks.
