County Fair Legacy Project
This grant is intended to provide access to cultural music of this area of the state. We are inviting in musical groups for our old-time music afternoon and a special concert in our north entertainment area. These groups include The Concord Singers, The Marv Nissel Band, and the Over-60 band. We are trying to pass on old-time music to younger audiences and keep the tradition of this music as a part of the fair. We also have a fair museum, and the doors are sticking making it difficult for people to get in. This is a controlled environment building so we need to keep the doors closed. Both the main entrance and the fire doors are needing repair.
We want to be able to keep alive old-time music and traditional music from ethnic groups that settled in this area. We will assign one of the superintendents to count the number of people in the park during this time.
