I'm really not a fan of the fairgrounds. I go when there are bigger events I enjoy.
1) Rib cook off was great but it really needs a shaded seating area so we don't all burn in the sun
2) Was there for the glow in the dark 5K. It was so muddy that it felt like running through tar. I had to walk half and still kept getting leg cramps.
3) the flea market has a $3 charge, which is nominal and I wouldn't mind except that it's really dusty and the quality of goods are generally awful
