If you need to contact a Fair Board member, please contact the office at 785-863-2212.
Fair Board meetings are the second Thursday of each month at 6:30 PM in the Extension Office Basement (subject to change - please confirm date and location before traveling).
Fair Building Rental Agreements
The Fair Board has implemented a new "3 business day hold" policy when renting out the building. This means that an inquiring renter has 3 business days to get the paperwork and check turned in to the Extension office from the time they verbally indicate they want to reserve it. If the 3 days pass and no paperwork and check have been submitted, the building is open to the next inquiry.
