Mission Statement

The Board of Directors of Menard County Fair, Inc. is committed to producing a successful fair which promotes and advances the interest of agriculture, community development, and provides quality entertainment. We encourage appropriate use of our facilities and strive to explore all avenues in which the fairgrounds can serve the educational and entertainment needs of our community. The Menard County Fair presents an opportunity for all members of our community, as well as neighboring communities, to exhibit their special skills and hard work. The fair is a celebration of the special qualities of life in Menard and surrounding counties. We are happy to provide the youth of our community an event and venue to showcase their talents through 4-H, FFA, and other means. The fair board is committed to the operation of the fairgrounds facilities for both public and private events, in a responsible manner which generates economic stimulation and tourism development in Menard County. The fair board, staff, and many volunteers welcome you and encourage you to enjoy all aspects of the fair.
