Project Overview

The fair is in process of updating our "park" area of the grounds. This is where performers are on stage. In 2024 we would like to add a cover, and more electric and lighting.

Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The Martin County Fair brings approximately 30,000 people thru the gate the week of the county fair. Our grounds and building are used throughout the spring-fall for various "other" events. We provide free entertainment throughout the week of the fair and also have various bands, shows, etc. perform. We would not be able to provide all we do without access to these county fair grants. This is a great way to provide fairs with some way to have additional funds to make these upgrades to their grounds or their entertainment to their fair. The Martin County Fair is a week of fun for many people not only in Martin County, but surrounding counties also.
