42nd Antique Show, 7th Canal Boat Derby slated for Sunday

NORWICH – The 42nd annual Antiques Show and 7th annual Canal Boat Derby benefitting the Chenango County Historical Society will take place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday at the Chenango County Fairgrounds.

Antiques Show Chair John Antonowicz said about 25 dealers will be set up with booths at the fairgrounds Sunday offering quality antiques ranging from glassware, furniture, toys, tools, jewelry, holiday decor, and much more.

"Dealers will come and set up their booths and then people come and find that long lost treasure that they need for their collection," said Antonowicz. "We have some new antique dealers this year which is really exciting."

Admission to the Antiques Show is $4. Proceeds from admissions and from vendors' fees will directly benefit the Chenango County Historical Society.

Admission fees are waved for those who participate in the Canal Boat Derby. For $10 a boat or $25 for three, patrons can sponsor model canal boats which will be dumped off of the bridge located beside the fairgrounds before floating downstream toward a finish line.

The purchaser of the winning canal boat will receive a top prize package of $500 cash donated by Visions Federal Credit Union, a pair of season tickets to Chenango Arts Council's 2018-19 Performance Series, and a year's subscription to The Evening Sun.
