support the future of the cass county fair

Unfortunately, we’re all feeling the impact of rising costs these days. From food supplies to entertainment, the dollar just doesn’t stretch as far as it used to. We are incredibly grateful for our loyal sponsors and donors who support the fair year after year, decade after decade.

Every dollar from our community goes right back into the fair. While fair-goers easily see the larger, more visible expenses like entertainers and events, there’s also a long list of behind-the-scenes necessities that keep our county fair running smoothly for the community to enjoy each summer.

When you support the county fair, your dollars help cover essential items such as livestock bedding; toilet paper and cleaning supplies for the week; trophies and awards; food and concession supplies; and general materials — ranging from wasp spray to random bolts. Your support also helps pay for utilities like electricity and water, insurance, exhibit judges, daytime and evening entertainment, advertising and promotions, repairs and maintenance in our food stands, trash service, portable restrooms, handwashing stations, signage… and much more.

Through sponsorships, donations, grants, and other support, our goal is always to see how we can reinvest into our fair, making it even better for the years ahead. That means new activities, additional entertainment, and more opportunities to create lasting memories — all while keeping the fair free for our loyal fair-goers, the community and our youth.
