The Phelps County Fair Board is building new barns before this year’s fair August 13th – 16th to support local 4-H and FFA children in showing their animals. The PC Fair Board has worked diligently to raise the estimated $30,000 needed to complete the barn project by seeking donations from the community. The theft of these building supplies represents 1/10th of our entire budget.
