Camping Regulations
Any person under the age of 21 staying overnight in the campgrounds must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. In the event a parent or guardian cannot be present due to work or other conflicts, the parent or guardian may designate another responsible person over the age of 21 to say in their place. This person will be required to have a written statement to that effect signed by the parent.
There will be a curfew placed on outside activities which take place in the campgrounds. This curfew will go into effect one hour after the evening entertainment in the grandstand is concluded. The curfew will ban any outside activity in the campground throughout the night, with the exception of livestock care and restroom use. First offense of the curfew will result in a warning. A second offense of the curfew will result in the removal of the person from the grounds.

Exhibitor trailer parking policy
All livestock or utility trailers left by exhibitors on the grounds during the fair shall be parked as near as possible to the East fence of the horse barn and campgrounds. This includes horse trailers. There shall be no trailers parked West of the East end of the horse barn.
Any trailer left at any location deemed restricted to trailer parking by the Fairboard or its designees shall be moved to an appropriate area. Means of moving the trailer (towing, pulling, dragging, etc) shall be at the discretion of the board or its designees. Any cost incurred by the board or its designees during the moving of the trailer shall be reimbursed by the trailer owner.
While it is not the intention of the board to place undue demands on exhibitors, we realize that the fair is funded in large part by those attending the night performances. It is our intention to provide as much parking area as we can, near as possible, to the main arena.
