If you get a kick at splashing around with your furry friends as they dive head first into the pool, then 
the new "splash dogs" competiton would suit you well.
Dog owners can enter their pooch into the  for just $20.
 
"Just to see the dogs how much they enjoy it, I don't have any place to take her to the water," Janet Navarro said.
 
There's certainly something "fishy" at the fair.
This 1,200 gallon "Cloud Tank" as they call it came from the production set of legendary film maker George Lucas.
 
"It's been in different movies, from Avatar, to Titanic, so it's got a little bit of Holllywood," Lauri King, Fair Spokesperson.
 
Let's not forget the delicious food; everthing from your traditional corn dogs to fried artichoke hearts?
 
"Our number one seller is the deep fried artichoke hearts, which is the softest part of the artichoke," Dan Lusenhob said.
 
If you want to sink your teeth in one 
head on over to Jeanne's Artichokes...a new addition to the fair.
 
And if you thought the dogs were the only ones getting wet, think again; the new "White Water Flune" will do the job.
 
There's always time for learning especially at the new "World Discovery" exhibit where they have animals from each continent.
