2 SPONSORSHIP IN ACTION INNOVATIONS IN SPONSORSHIPS...

...AT THE GREAT FREDERICK FAIR ARE MAKING A HUGE IMPACT.

Our sponsorships continue to evolve into partnerships, where sponsors are not only investing directly into the support of our Agricultural Education Exhibits and Programs, but are also making improvements to the areas that they sponsor. Buildings are being painted and sponsored areas are being renovated or rebuilt. Assets like signage are doubling as sun shades that carry the sponsor’s brand and provide a valuable function for the kids, their animals and fairgoers alike. Signage is also creating dramatic photo backdrops, providing information about agricultural industries or educational facts about breeds or biproducts. These sponsorships are creating a great environment for our guests and exhibitors. Many of these sponsored areas are a hub for fair activities and a point of interest for events throughout the year.

YOUR SPONSORSHIP DOLLARS ARE BEING WELL SPENT AND MAKING A TREMENDOUS DIFFERENCE.

SPONSORSHIP IN ACTION 13 EQUINE DEPARTMENT THE EXPO HAS FOUND A NEW HOME.

In 2011, an Equine Expo was established at our fair. The Expo is a unique area that provides interesting facts, programming and educational content about horses in a fun and interactive space. The tremendous growth of the program and demand for more content created the need for more space. The objective was to relocate and consolidate, bringing all of the equine-related events in closer proximity to one another.

A low-lying area of the infield between the arena and the tunnel, which had been closed for over 10 years, was the best option. A 3-phase plan was presented to the Board with the expectation that it would take 3 years to complete. Due to the generosity of our incredible partners, Pleasants Construction, Ruppert Landscape, S.W. Barrick & Sons, Shepherd Electric Supply and Playground Specialists, Inc. we were able to complete the plan in only 3 months. Together, we successfully created a new destination called Pleasants Park. Fairgoers were delighted to be able to walk through the tunnel again.

Pleasants Park is now a destination with picnic tables, stadium seating, a Bartley trailer vendor and The Moose Pit, a very popular vendor where thousands gathered to eat. Many visited the Equine Expo, which showcased Payton the donkey (2019 featured animal), miniature horses, draft horses and many other breeds, along with a Pin The Tail on ‘Jack’ game, English and Western riding demos using horse-like barrels, wooden horse-grooming stations, articulated skeletons and a horse shoe exhibit.

The Ryan Homes Outdoor Equine Arena, located right next to the Expo, features a week long schedule packed with events like parades, horse pulls, demonstrations and shows.
