Bonner County Fairgrounds Awarded August Business of the Month
Rodeos, events, 4H exhibits and judging competitions – it’s all happening at the fair! For these and many other contributions to the community, The Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce recognizes the Bonner County Fairgrounds as the Business of the Month.
With the tireless efforts of Rhonda Livingstone, Fair Manager, and Robert “Bob” Snider, Head Groundskeeper, the Bonner County Fairgrounds provides a free educational opportunity for the residents of Bonner County to display ideas and articles from their areas of expertise as well as allowing local organizations and businesses an opportunity to present their products to the public.
Rhonda has been the Fair Manager for 10 years and volunteered her services for 7 years prior to becoming manager. Robert just recently oversaw the completion of their new RV Campgrounds this past May 2010. With 33 campsites, restroom facilities, showers, electric and water hookups and covered pavilion, the new campground provides comfortable RV stays whether camping or attending a horse show.
With the Bonner County Fair and Rodeo just around the corner, the new campground facilities will be well received. This year’s theme is “Fiesta at the Fair” and proves to be fun and educational for the entire family. From Tuesday, August 24 through Saturday, August 28 be sure to plan a day at the fair and see all there is to offer. There will be livestock exhibits, demolition derby, Horsin’ Around Expo and more.
The Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce is pleased to honor the Bonner County Fair as the recipient of the Business of the Month and wishes them continued success.
