I always look forward to all the vendors at the fair. It's always a treat to bring home something fun and way overpriced. But nonetheless it's a tradition we've carried through three generations of family. Here's to three generations more.

We camped here for the PNW Overland Expo. It was a ton of fun and we really enjoyed all the exhibits.

We were there for my granddaughters dance recital. The grounds are very well kept and the buildings well maintained. They have an actual RV park that was pretty decent with several campers on-site.

Large venue with a wide variety of attractions coming and going! Monster trucks and Tough Trucks are always a good time for the family. Gun shows several times a year. Sportmans Show. Home of the Deschutes County Fair and Rodeo. Father's day demolition derby is always a family favorite! They have auto cross events from time to time. The auto swap meet in September is a personal favorite for me! They are starting to do off road rally events as well and really looking forward to that becoming a consistent thing! Every couple of years the Family Motor Coach Association packs every square inch of the place with RV'ers helping a HUGE boom for the Redmond economy. Maybe twice a year they host Central Oregon Arena Cross Motorcycle races...I would really like to see at least 1 or 2 BIG car shows held here! And furthermore with the growth of Central Oregon there is potential for so much more! Minutes from Redmond Airport and a few hotels on the edge of Redmond Oregon just off highway 97, 15 minutes from Bend or Terrebonne, about 3 hours from Portland, Salem, Corvallis, Albany, Eugene it really is the "Hub" of Central Oregon!
