The Robertson County Fair was awarded the AAA Division Most Improved Fair at the Tennessee Association of Fairs 88th Annual Convention in January 2011. This award comes as a tribute to the men and women in our coomunity that assisted in the clean-up efforts after the May 2010 floods. We were not the only fairgrounds devestated by the massive flooding, but we were the only fairgrounds that were back to normal operations in just days. We were able to have the Farmer's Market as scheduled thanks to the countless hours of many volunteers that assisted. By convention time in January 2011 several faris were still dealing with damage and trying to figure out how to overcome such a tremendous obstacle.
Board members attending the Awards Banquet were: Chad Gregory, Henry Dean, James Marshall, Trent Cobb, Celeste Armstrong, Carol Justice, Mike Baggett, Mike Ramsey, Laurie Murphy |
