Fair Information
The 137th Fair is back to normal! This year we will host the last two days of pari-mutuel horse racing, on Saturday and Sunday. We will have all of our livestock shows. Please look to join the Race Day Classic or the Open Cattle Show. There will be some Agricultural exhibits, and some other exhibits to be viewed.
