The resurgent New York State Fair coasts to a stop on Labor Day Monday, though the weather forecast may discourage some fans from going out. If predictions for a wet day 13 are accurate, you can still have a great time at the Fair.
As always, waterproof shoes and a tough rain jacket are the best defensive measures for a foul weather, but don’t forget that there’s dazzling indoor entertainment on the grounds. 
The buildings mentioned in the previous post are a good place to start. Animal barns will be dry, though some livestock may begin their departure during the day.
The Circus Hollywood goes on under the traditional big top, just west of the Expo Center at 1:30, 4:30 and 7:30. It’s relatively small in size, but hugely entertaining with clowns, acrobats, aerialists and jugglers making for a non-stop thrill ride.
You can tour the Art and Home Center for hours, enjoying an impressive fine arts competition, creative crafts and inspiring culinary feats. 
Eco-magician Steve Trash performs in the theater at 11, 3 and 5 p.m. and you may be able to catch a cooking demonstration in the lower-level kitchen.
Other major buildings will be open until 9 p.m. with vendors, exhibitors and entertainment. Use a little imagination and you can squeeze out one more great day at the Fair.
Weather permitting, a burst of fireworks over the grounds will close things out after the final Chevy Park show.
