Become a Part of History: Leave your mark on Washington County's livestock legacy.
Honoring Our Producers. Investing in Our Future.
The Washington County Fair is proud to introduce a new, permanent livestock photo backdrop honoring the generations of producers who have shaped our county.
This display will stand as a lasting tribute to the families, farms, and brands that built Washington County agriculture. Year after year, this backdrop will be used during 4-H livestock shows and champion photos — seen by hundreds of exhibitors, families, and fairgoers.
When you become a Legacy Sponsor, your livestock brand becomes part of that history.
Why This Matters.
In 2025, the Washington County Fair Board invested nearly $20,000 into essential fairground upgrades. While these improvements were necessary, they significantly reduced funds available for future projects.
Every dollar raised through the Legacy Sponsor Program goes directly toward improving fair facilities, nothing else.
Your support helps fund:
-
Updated show areas
-
Safer barns
-
Improved equipment
-
Better exhibitor spaces
These enhancements ensure that today’s exhibitors and the generations who follow, have a safe, positive, and successful fair experience.
As a fully volunteer-run board, we strive to keep our financial processes simple and transparent. Legacy Sponsorships are collected as a one-time payment rather than multi-year installments.

To celebrate this project, we will host a special Branding Night featuring a professional photographer.

This book will serve as a lasting keepsake for families and future generations.
