People travel from far and wide to attend our fair!

Some of our visitors come to compete in various competitions like the...

- Livestock entries and shows

- The antique tractor entries and tractor parade

- The farm and garden equipment entries

- Entries in the Ag and Ag annex buildings such as baking, canning, sewing, quilts, afghans, arts and crafts,
photography, fruit and vegetable and Grange and 4-H Club exhibits.   We even had a Peewee class for children
between the ages of 2 to 4.

Some had fun on the rides or tried to win something from the stands on the Midway.   Some enjoyed the shows at the grandstand, attended or took part in one of the demolition derbies, or the Orlo truck or tractor pull.   Some watched the horse pulling contest, animal judging and competition. Some came to see the vendor displays, or watch the square dancing - maybe even took part in the dancing.   Some enjoyed the Ag and Ag Annex building exhibits and learned about the "honey bees".   Some came for traditional fair food like cotton candy, candy apples, fudge, apple dumplings, monkey bread, fried dough and a host of other meals and sandwiches.

For some it was family time or seeing people they have not seen from one year to the next.  Who knows, maybe we caught you on camera and your picture is in one of our galleries. Take a few minutes to view our galleries.
