Board Quotes
I say every year 'the Fair Board is very excited about this year's Fair', but it is true. We really are excited about every Fair. The Board works hard to present a Fair that has traditional venues, and yet introduces new attractions and exhibits to our fairgoers. Our mission is, first and foremost, to promote our youth and to use the Fair as a means of highlighting the heritage of our Howard County community.

Admission Quotes
Our Fair has used this type of grandstand admission since 1985. It works very well for our area, as it offers our fairgoers a lot of quality entertainment for the price of one button. If we look at this year's grandstand lineup and price each show separately, like many other Fairs do, the total cost of going to all grandstand shows would be $62. At the Howard County Fair, one $15 button is all that is need to see all of these shows. Your Fair offers the best entertainment deal anywhere.

Disagree Quotes
It's given us a lot of great opportunities to form a long-term relationship with clients, but it's not always a good thing. I know there are a lot of people out there selling with scare tactics, the ones who don't want to see viruses go away. I disagree with that sales philosophy, but I see a lot of it.
