Trace Adkins, Chicago, Sugarland, Corbin Bleu and Drake Bell to headline the 2007 Great Jones County Fair

    This year's Great Jones County Fair, which runs July 18-22, is filled with Top 10 artists, award-winners, classic rock, and even a couple of singers/actors.

   Tuesday night is the fair kick-off sneak-a-peek featuring a motocross.

   Entertainment on Wednesday night is the NTPA Tractor Pull.

   Trace Adkins, with several Top 10 hits and his smash hit ‘Honky Tonk Badonkadonk,’ will perform Thursday night along with country singer Jamie O’Neal.

   Friday night will star the classic rock group Chicago, who has worldwide record sales of more than 120 million and 50 hits in the U.S. alone. Chicago has been entertaining people since 1967.
   
   Saturday will bring Sugarland with special guest Keith Anderson. Sugarland received six awards at this year’s Academy of Country Music Awards and was nominated for Best New Artist at this year’s Grammy Awards. Anderson, who also has several Top 10 hits, was ranked as country’s number one new male artist in 2005 by Billboard and Radio & Records.

   Sunday’s entertainment is geared toward families with two young singer/actors. 18-year-old singer Corbin Bleu has appeared in several television shows and is best known as "Chad" in the Disney Channel movie ‘High School Musical.’ Drake Bell, 20, is best known for his role as "Drake Parker" on the Nickelodeon program ‘Drake and Josh.’ His first album is ‘It’s Only Time.’
