This year marks the 159th year of our Great Darke County Fair. What
started out in 1853 at the Garst Museum, has grown into that which we
know today. Through the years people have donated the land we now know
as the Fairgrounds, money, services, time, labor - the list is almost
endless. Enough people have always believed our fair could attain and
retain the reputation of "the biggest and best county fair." Only
two years has there ever been no fair. One year was during a world war
and the other year was due to a disease epidemic. That's a pretty good
record - two cancellations out of 159 years. Along the way concerts
have been added, paved midways, and - electricity! Think what it would
have been like without it. No colorful lights at night to beckon
passersby for miles - "Come see our Great Darke County Fair!" Thanks to
Kissel Brothers for their unmatched contributions! See ya'll there!
Remember the kiddies and our service people. Take good care of the
furry and feathered ones out there. Be safe and healthy. See ya next
time. Ever Toodles!! MONA
