From April 3–13, the Montgomery County Fair & Rodeo will be back in full force to celebrate farming, kids, and community involvement. Tobin Redwine, executive director of the Montgomery County Fair Association, talked about how the event has a long past and is still changing.
Redwine said, "It began in 1957 with a field day model." "Back then, agricultural displays were set up in open fields so that people could get a close look at farm animals and goods." The event has changed over the years to become what it is now.
What's New This Year? Madison Harris, the marketing community coordinator, confirmed that the number of exhibitors will rise from 18 to 30. People who go can look at Western-themed goods, eat food that tastes like it came from a fair, and get special services like permanent makeup and face painting.
There will still be new rides and entertainment at this year's fair, and the fair will still help local youth. Redwine said, "One thing I love about our fair is how it combines old and new ideas." "There are old favorites at the carnival as well as some brand-new rides and attractions."
The Montgomery County Fair & Rodeo was started to help fund scholarships and promote farm education. It continues to improve the rodeo experience by adding fun activities and chances to learn by doing. This year's fair has something for everyone, whether they come for the exciting rides, the educational displays, or the sense of community.
