2010 Ellis County Fair - President Loran
Zimmerman
Who would have ever thought demolishing your
grandfather’s combine could be so entertaining. Yes it
was a “BIG” year at the Ellis County Fair last year and
we look for it to be even bigger this year. Our line-up
will be; 2 nights of URSS Sprint car races with local
cover classes, 2 nights of exciting KPRA Rodeo, “Hold On
“as the Missouri Tractor Pullers are coming to town to
tear-up the track right in front of the grandstands, and
yes, a bigger and even better Combine Demo Derby with
expanded classes and then we end with another great
night of Lion’s Club Demo Derby. As always, free nightly
entertainment on the Midway, the Carnival and all of
this entertainment for the same low price it always has
been. Its exciting times at the Fair and we invite you
and everyone you know to come out and join us. Also
please come out and see the improvements at the
Fairgrounds as we installed a fourth section to the
south end of the grandstands and also another section to
the west end of the Rodeo arena bleachers.
Thanks goes out to the Ellis County Fairboard, RPM
Speedway, Midwest Deutshefest Assoc and all the many
volunteers who make the Fair possible. We would also
like to thank the Ellis County Commissioners and all of
the Ellis County Employees who help us with the
operation and maintenance of the Fair.
We would like to thank all of our many sponsors and as
you visit their businesses please thank them for
supporting the Fair. Their support makes all of this
possible.
I invite everyone to come out and enjoy the Ellis County
Fair and look forward to seeing you there and visiting
with you.
Sincerely
Loran Zimmerman
Ellis County Fairboard President
