New Lorain County Fair Buildings – 1964

I still love going to the Lorain County Fair each year and to me, much of its appeal is its timeless quality. It doesn't change very much from year to year and seems to be frozen in time – which is fine with me.

But at some point, the fair buildings were new – and the article below, which appeared in the Lorain Journal on August 1, 1964 – provides a clue as to when some of them were built. It mentions how the office building, pony barn, rabbit building and dining hall were all new that year. Also, the walking area of the fairgrounds were newly blacktopped.
