To the editor:

The Webster County Fair Board would like to THANK everyone that helped with the 2022 Webster County Fair! Volunteers are what make this fair possible.

We appreciate PICA’s work this year. Thanks to 4H/FFA kids/families, leaders, superintendants, Brooke McKibben, the extension staff and livestock fair secretary Linda Cline. Hours of work on and off the grounds help to improve our fairgrounds.

Thanks to groundskeeper Ron Webb. His countless hours of work and dedication make a difference. We couldn’t do it without you.

Thanks to the volunteers for who organized and ran the open shows in Photography, Baking, Quilt, Bill Riley Show and Little Miss Contest.

We appreciate the Messenger and Consumer News coverage. Many thanks to the Dayton Leader, Fort Dodge Convention and Visitors Bureau, Farm Bureau and Greater Fort Dodge Growth Alliance for their online fair coverage. Thanks for your support of the fair.

The Des Moines River Valley Antique Tractor Club is a wonderful addition to the fair. Fair-goers young and old enjoy and learn so much at your site. Thank you for your kids rides, food, shows and knowledge. We are happy to have you as a part of the Webster County Fair.

The Fair Board would like to thank the county supervisors for their support, as well as, all of the families and businesses that made a monetary donation or donated their time, labor or equipment; it is what makes this fair possible. Our sponsors list is on our website.

Thanks’ to every one who spent hours working on the race schedule, track and running the events. Without volunteer work and the track helpers, these events would not happen.

We thank the families and businesses that attended the livestock and woodcarving auction, supporting the youth and Fair Board.

Last but not least, thanks to our families/friends who also volunteered to make events run smoothly.

See you at the 2023 Webster County Fair.
