Wayne Chicken Show

Thousands of chickens raised in Wayne County and surrounding communities lay millions of eggs each year. This important industry is the inspiration for the world-famous Wayne Chicken Show. The July event features plucky contestants imitating barnyard fowl in its National Cluck-Off and challenging their capacity for fun in the hard-boiled egg eating contest. The event heats up with the hot wing-eating competition and cools during the wine tasting.
