BELLVILLE—The 2024 Austin County Fair’s Annual Shrimp Boil theme is Rock Around the Stock! It kicked off the fundraiser on July 19 at the fairgrounds in Bellville.
The annual shrimp boil has become a much anticipated event and packs the fair hall each year, but it was well worth it for the great food and community spirit.
The crowd was served like a finely tuned machine with several years under its belt. During the shrimp boil, the fair performer line was announced, the fair queen contestants were introduced and the auctions heated up.
The fair will be held Oct. 4 - 13 at the Austin County Fairgrounds in Bellville.
The shrimp boil proceeds benefit the Austin County Fair Scholarship Fund which, in turn, benefits the youth in the Austin County area.
