First Annual Hall of Fame Celebration
Saturday, March 25th, 2023
Join the Brown County Fair Foundation at the First Annual Hall of Fame Celebration Saturday, March 25th, 2023, where the 1986 Brown County Fair Board will be recognized. These inductees include: Jim Bain, Stan Beckler, Joyce Dahme, Karl Eichler, Shirley Ellwein, Ron Gage, Larry Gerlach, Bob Gruman, Nancy Hansen, Derald Holt, Connie Howard, Marty Huettl, George Kessler, Gerald Lehman, Gayle Osman, Lyle Podoll, Al Ringgenberg, Earl & Twila Ruden, Jerry Schley, June Schliebe, Gary Sharp, Dewayne Storley, Verland Losinger, Karen Lamport, and Don Gannon.
A buffet dinner, program, silent auction, and good times are planned.
Without the courage, ingenuity, and progressive thinking of these fair board comrades, there may be no Brown County FAir today and surely not the hugely successful event now celebrated. In fact, the 1986 Fair Board was absolutely instrumental in bringing big name artists to the Grandstand. A recognition of their achievements is long overdue!
Purchase your tickets from the BCF Foundation members or the Fair Office at 400 24th Ave. NW in Aberdeen. For more information call
605-626-7116.
Brown County Fair Kids Zone Playground
A permanent, commercial playset will not only be the central focal point of the popular Brown County Fair Kids Zone, but it will also provide added value to both the campgrounds and to the many groups housed on the fairgrounds throughout the entire year.
Any Blue, Red, White Level Sponsors will be listed on recognition signage when the project is complete. All donation amounts are welcome for this important project.
About Us
Founded in 2022, the Brown County Fair Foundation is a 501c3 tax exempt organization working to preserve, improve, and modernize the facilities at the Brown County Fairgrounds.
Home of the Brown County Fair, Centennial Village, Brown County Speedway, Larry Gerlach Grandstand, Odde Ice Arena, Go-Kart and RC Car tracks, Akkerman Horse Arena, Holum Expo Building, and numerous barns, campgrounds, and structures, the fairgrounds host literally hundreds of thousands of campers, fairgoers, and recreational enthusiasts every year.
While county tax dollars serve well to fund annual expenses, such as utilities, insurance, payroll, and some maintenance, additional funds are necessary for the capital improvements required to preserve the fairgrounds as a premier destination for the great variety of events hosted. Whether a large contribution or a few dollars, the BCF Foundation works closely with the Brown County Fair Board and Brown County Commission to coordinate efforts and maximize the impact of each donated dollar. Thank you for your consideration in joining our efforts!
