2026 Fair & Rodeo preparations

Summary

The fair and rodeo are nearly ready — contracts, entertainment and ads are locked in. But the Sunday barrel race fell through when MMRAN Club backed out, so the board is racing to find replacement groups and insurance so there's still something in the arena.

Impact analysis

💰Financial impact

Lisa Tibbals negotiated the fun events provider down to $3,000, and running under Lions Club insurance would mean the board couldn't collect entry fees.

✅Who benefits

Fairgoers and the local community get a full fair and rodeo weekend.

⚠️Who could be affected

If the Sunday barrel race can't be replaced, spectators and participants lose that event.
