Blaine County Fair Planned

The Blaine County Fair is set for Aug. 21- 22. However, it will look different this year, due to COVID-19. There will be no Open Class Division in the Foley Building. The entries will only be 4-H and FFA in the building. In addition, there will be a Junior Livestock Show and Mini Beef Show. This decision was made by the Blaine County Fair board to down scale the fair this year to help keep the residents of the county safe. They would like to encourage all residents to please enter the fair in 2021. 4-H members are encouraged to come by the Blaine County OSU Extension Office to pick up entry tags prior to the fair. The Lions Club will be having a concession stand from 4-8 p.m. on Friday and all day on Saturday.
