I visited the annual York Fair, held at the York Expo Center (in York, Pennsylvania) every September. New for 2011 was a new fair layout to better accommodate crowd flow. Also new was the ride supplier, Deggellar Attractions, who provided even more rides on an expanded midway.

Below are just some of the many highlights showcasing the sights and sounds of the 2011 Fair.
