Thurston County Fair is Here!

The Thurston County Fair, previously named the Mutual Aid Fair, was first held in 1871 at the Columbia Hall which is now the 4th Avenue Tavern. The Mutual Aid Fair was created to aid farmers and agriculture, and to aid the development of our area by encouraging immigration. The Fair was a great success, filling both floors of the building.

Come out to the fair grounds this week August 4th thru the 8th for this year's Thurston County Fair festivities! Great fair food, carnival rides, 4-H animals, entertainment and so much more!

Enjoy!
