Welcome from the General Manager
“Group Therapy”. . . perhaps an understatement! The
162nd birthday of one of America’s best treasures! The
“Great Jones County Fair” instantly brings a smile and
fond memories to thousands as they think about enjoying
another experience. Fair fans have preconceived emotions
of excitement that say, “We are going to have a great time!”
The week is set. The energy is epidemic. The stats in
every direction are off the charts. Make no doubt about it
. . . this is a BIG one! The Five Best Days of Summer will
be “group therapy” like no other! Bring your family, friends,
and your smiles. Another piece of history is about to happen!
