Description:

From Eau Claire County Fair Website:

The Eau Claire County Fair began in 1924, and for the first seven years was held in Augusta. This fair featured a carnival and horse races. In 1930 the fair building burned and the fair was moved to Fall Creek. After the city of Eau Claire hosted the fair in 1934 and 1935, it returned to Augusta until 1939.

The effects of the Great Depression were evident during this time with fair exhibits, including entries such as "best patched garment and best darning on a hose." The fair returned to Eau Claire in 1940, and live stock were housed in the cavalry barns on the outskirts of the city and the other exhibits were displayed in the City Auditorium.

In 1941 the county fair moved to a site in Altoona. The first year witnessed the building of the dairy barn and a portion of the main exhibit building, with a dormitory being built the following year.

A youth and family-centered fair with animal judging, 4-H exhibits, low cost games and activities for children, educational exhibits and moderately-priced concessions including homemade pies.
