Exotic animals are making their way back to Chatham for the 71st Annual Community Fair at Memorial Arena.
Club president Bob Hughes says the rides always draw a good crowd, but the petting zoo was a big hit last time, so they're bringing it back.
"We had a baby Bengal Tiger last year and I believe we have another one this year, but it might be a little bit older," says Hughes. "There were camels and all kinds of exotic animals -- I know this year they're bringing in a different assortment for the kids to look at."
Hughes says they also have a good selection of rides this year.
"I know that this past spring the owners were in Russia and Austria and over in Britain looking at other rides to possibly purchase and bring over here," says Hughes. "They're always trying to expand and make their inventory a little bit better so that when they do have rides they're different."
The fair opens at 4pm today and Friday and runs through the weekend until Sunday at 6pm.
