There are many reasons to have a fair, from the great foods to the carnival rides and games, from the grandstand shows to the special entertainment. However, the directors still feel the biggest reason is the opportunity for you to exhibit in the over 2,000 classes listed in this book. You can be part of the expected $20,000 to be given away in premium money along with the ribbons. All Exhibitors must use on-line entry available by July 15th. Go to go to fair entry tab and then click on the online registration link, be sure to SUBMIT entries from the viewing screen. You may also download and preview the Premium Book Rules and Regulations on that web page. We require advance entry for all exhibits. Advance entry allows us to have the exhibit tags and forms ready for you when you get to the fair. Please pay close attention to the entry times for each division. To enter in the 4-H department, you must contact the 4-H office. The Itasca County Fair continues to be a gathering place for county residents to visit and have fun.
