Fair board announces fair, event dates at fairgrounds

The floor has been raised in the Oaks building. Heating and cooling units are being installed in the upstairs of the Clarno building. And the most important is that we have leased an 8 acre field across Reedsford Road for more parking and there will be an entrance to the fair on the west side of the fairgrounds. As most of you know we had a real problem with parking last year and this should resolve the issue.

We have a lot of painting on our to do list, the girls bathroom in the Clarno building, the face of the museum and around the grounds. If you would like to help, come on down! The arenas are looking great and there are events going on in them each weekend throughout the summer. If there are any businesses out there that would like to sponsor at the fair, please call the fair office. 541-396-2000.
