Our Mission

The mission of the Douglas County Fairgrounds is to provide a high quality County Fair for the residents of Douglas County, with primary emphasis on agriculture, 4-H and FFA.

The Fair will provide a gathering place for the community to showcase their products and skills, as well as promote agriculture, educational, social, economic and entertainment opportunities.

As a year-round facility, we serve the community by providing multi-use facilities for both public and private events in a responsible manner, generating economic stimulation and tourism development.
