Fireworks at the Fairgrounds
Friday, June 28th

     Gates open at 6:00 p.m., with fair food vendors on site ready and willing to feed your hungry crew supper!  We'll also be having a classic car cruise-in, as well as various local musical acts.  
     The buildings and barns will be closed (since the Fair doesn't officially start until the next morning), but restrooms will be available around the property.
     Parking is first-come, first-served and by donation only.  ​
                2019 Sneak Peek:  Events... 
 
Here's the scoop for the week: 
     Love seeing people test their skills and courage against horses and bulls and other large animals?  Enjoy laughing at the rodeo clowns as they run around the arena distracting the bulls?  We do, too!  ​
     So, our sneak peek this week into this year's Monroe County Fair is:  we're hosting a Professional Bull Riders-sanctioned rodeo on the night of July 4th!  
     The Three Bar J Rodeo will be joining us in the Grandstands overseeing a PBR-sanctioned rodeo, one that is an official rodeo on the circuit!  All of the spectacle and cowboy skill that you hope to see should be awaiting you on the night of the 4th.  Join us and cheer on your favorite events!
​
See you at the rodeo on the 4th!  See you at the Fair!
Parking:  At this time, parking is expected to be $5/carload, starting at noon each day.  Weekly passes are available for just $20 and get you in and out as often as you please all week long.
         NEW Fair Book Available NOW: 
Get Your Projects Ready for the 2019 Fair!  

     The Fair is almost here and that means just ONE DAY remains to get your projects ready for the 2019 Monroe County Fair!  (And maybe more, depending upon what you are entering!)
     Now is the time to get hopping on making those projects and figuring out just what you want to enter into the Fair.  The 2019 Fair Book is linked below or you may pick up a paper copy and entry tags at the Monroe County Fairgrounds (in the Community Building or 4-H Building) or at the Farmer's Market on Saturday mornings in Information Alley (over by the B-Line Trail).
     ​REMEMBER:  You don't have to be a child, nor a member of 4-H, to enter projects into the Fair!  The Community Building and its patio are filled with projects, flowers, and fruits and vegetables from Monroe County residents of ALL ages- just like you- every year.  Make 2019 the year YOU try your hand at winning a blue ribbon at the Fair!  Who knows?  Maybe that quilt, or that photograph, or your famous chocolate chip cookies, or your monster zucchini will be the one chosen to be Grand Champion!  You never know until you try!  See you and your projects at the Fair!
