    Grange Fairgrounds image
    I just attended 1 day at the 2019 Grange Fair and loved it. My wife’s family has been multiple generation attendees but it was my first and I have to say I was impressed. There was all the offerings of a usual fair, food, rides, midway games but they had amazing animal exhibits and shows. I can say the only thing that was needed was for me to be there more than 1 day. I didn’t get to the live entertainment or their famous tractor pulls. They even have several big buildings with vendors of various products. Next year I’ll plan a longer trip! Very friendly and highly recommended. See more..
