Governor’s Day at the Fair is truly one of my favorite days of the year. I love coming and reconnecting with old friends and meeting new ones. I love doing the rides in the Midway, I love going to the Grange and the Farm Bureau to eat delicious food. I love going to the barns to see the animals the kids have raised and are showing. I like spending time the FFA and 4-H students.
