The variety is astounding as we look around the fairgrounds and see that this is one venue where there is truly something for everyone. This year, that variety includes the traditional aspects, 4-H, Junior and Open shows in everything from art to animals, and apples to zucchini. Textiles, photography, baked goods, preserved foods, field crops, and oh so much more are a part of the fair each year. Continued --
