Another terrific year at the State fair with beautiful animals and plenty of 4-H events and indoor as well as outdoor events. Definitely something for everyone. It was a bit warm but the fair had plenty of water and delicious eats and drinks for any age. We had a ball and enjoyed ourselves. Pleasant employees and staff all throughout the venue. The live music was a treat too. We heard the Mariachis band during our lunch break. Fun times
