Local Tips

Chase City sits near Lake Kerr (Buggs Island Lake) on the North Carolina border — the lake's 800 miles of shoreline provide outstanding fishing and recreation, and the tobacco-country towns of the South Hill area preserve a distinctive rural Virginia character.

What You'll Find There

Highlights include livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a community fair celebrating the tobacco and mixed farming heritage of Virginia's southernmost Piedmont counties.

The Fair

Held each October in Chase City, the South Central Fair serves the agricultural communities of Mecklenburg County on the Virginia-North Carolina border, celebrating the Southside Virginia tobacco country along the shores of Kerr Lake.
