🐮 Leave Your Mark at the Fairgrounds! 🐮

Our brand board is growing, and we have space available for your ranch brand!

Each custom brand board is $250 and will be displayed as a lasting part of the fairgrounds while helping support fair improvements and projects.

If you’d like to add your brand to the board, send us a DM or contact any Fair Board member for more information.

Thank you to everyone who has already joined this unique piece of our ranching heritage! 🤠

Another fair barn work day in the books! Huge thanks to the crew who showed up ready to work—putting up boards, tearing down tin, and making big progress. We couldn’t do it without you all. Your time, effort, and teamwork mean so much!

We've noticed a mix-up happening... and honestly, we get it!

There are TWO different organizations and TWO different places in town, and they are not the same thing:
👉 MEADE COUNTY FAIRGROUNDS
Home of the Meade County Fair & 4-H Achievement Days and other community events.

👉Sturgis Rodeogrounds / Sturgis Fairgrounds
A location behind the High School with a focus on rodeo events, practices and competitions.

Think of it like this:
One is where you might show a calf... the other where you might be riding one! 🤪

Both are great. Both are important. Just different.

Thanks for helping us clear up the confusion!
