Butler County Farm Bureau Donates $100,000 to Butler County Fair

A future building project on the Butler County Fairgrounds in Allison got a big boost earlier this week.

A Butler County Fair Facebook post reads that, “A huge thank you goes to Butler County Farm Bureau for their generous donation of $100,000. The donation kicked off the fundraising for the Butler County Fair’s new Multi Species Livestock Building. This new building will replace the older barns to the east of the grandstand. Butler County Farm Bureau has been a long-time supporter of the youth of Butler County and the Butler County Fair. We appreciate their commitment to the fair and their goal of strengthening Butler County.”

Fair officials add that there are many ways to contribute and be part of the project. Contact Derek Harken at 319-240-3125 or Mike Stirling at 319-269-5755, or any Butler County Fair Director or a fundraising committee member to learn more.
