A Big Congratulations to Sherry Repp, our Board Secretary!

County Fairs are a summer tradition in communities throughout Illinois, bringing friends, families and neighbors together each year.

The County Fair Luncheon at the Illinois State Fair was an opportunity to recognize and thank the hard-working people behind the scenes who make county fairs across Illinois a success.

Governor JB Pritzker presented the County Fair Person of the Year Award to Sherry Repp of Martinsville. For more than six decades, Sherry has been a steady and dedicated presence in the county fair community, helping preserve its traditions and strengthen its future.
