Plymouth County Fair Begins Today

(Le Mars) — The five best days of summer, or otherwise known as the Plymouth County Fair begins on Wednesday in Le Mars. Plymouth County Fair Board president, Rich Benson says visitors to this year’s fair will notice some improvements, including a new sidewalk.

In addition to the installation of new sidewalks, Benson says the fair board has been busy sprucing up the commercial exhibit buildings with a new coat of paint.

Benson says the Plymouth County Fair will provide a great variety of entertainment utilizing the grandstand area, as well as the Pioneer Village. New at this year’s Plymouth County Fair will be the opportunity for visitors to participate in a helicopter ride.

The fair board president reminds people that all entertainment is free, once you have paid for your gate admission.

Given the fact that it has been hot lately, Benson says the fair board has made some arrangements to help reduce the heat while visiting the fair.

In addition to the Century Hall being air conditioned, Benson says people can seek relief from the heat inside the Open Class Horticulture Exhibit area, as that too is an air conditioned building. The Plymouth County Fair Board president says it wouldn’t hurt his feelings if it would rain during the Plymouth County Fair.

The Plymouth County Fair begins on Wednesday, July 26th and continues through Sunday, July 30th.
