WHAT'S NEXT? THE NEW BEEF BARN
The transformation of the Lorain County Fairgrounds continues.
Our next major phase is the replacement of the current Junior Fair Beef facilities with a new Beef Barn.
Construction is expected to begin soon, marking another important step in providing modern, functional facilities for our Junior Fair exhibitors, families and agricultural community. Watch our Progress page and follow Fairs Forever for updates as we begin this exciting next chapter.
– Thank you to our Donors! –
The progress we have made would not have been possible without the incredible generosity of our donors, community partners and supporters.
Your investment has helped turn a vision into a facility that will serve Lorain County for generations. As we celebrate the completion of the Ross Exposition Center and Maureen M. Cromling Memorial Arena, we look forward to continuing this journey together as we move into the next phase of Fairs Forever.
