What built the Cass County Fair?

Vision, hard work and the power of a strong community.

It was written in 1949 that "fair is an indication of what can be accomplished if all get behind the project for the fostering of youth interest in agriculture and it's allied industries."

Did you know that just one week before fair was set to begin that year, only one building stood on the grounds. The other five barns you still see today? They were built in two days. TWO.
