     2019 Monroe County Fair:  Weekly Update

     This week's update:  Our Community Building has gotten an update!  Inside, we installed new ceilings, new ceiling fans, removed pegboard from the walls, and repainted.  Outside, we are having a mural painted by the esteemed local artist Adam Long and redoing some of our landscaping near the building.  See here for a video showing his work on the first day.  WOW!  
On his Facebook page, he is asking for ideas for small "hidden" objects to be inserted into this mural. Click here to go to his page and put in your ideas and opinions on what makes the Fair special for you!
See you at the Fair!
