July 5, 2016 Commission Agenda ~AKLAND COUNTY PARKS Oakland County Parks Historical Spotlight The Oakland County Fair is one of the oldest in the nation, tracing its roots back to the Oakland Agricultural Society, founded in 1830. During the Civil War, soldiers trained at the fairground property in Pontiac. A sign at Saginaw and Fairgrove streets commemorates that history. The fair moved to Milford prior to the turn of the 20th century, where it stayed until the 1930s. In the 30s, the fair returned to Pontiac, where it relocated several times through the years to sites such as the State Hospital grounds and even Oakland County Road Commission property. In 1949 the fair was renamed the Oakland County 4-H Fair. At the time, it was located on an 80-acre farm at the corner of Perry and Walton, in Pontiac. In 1971, the Oakland County 4-H Fair moved again to its current location at Springfield Oaks County Park. In 2008, in order to appeal to a larger population, the "4-H" was removed from the name. Oakland County Fair activities and great food from fair vendors combine to foster memories and family traditions. Stop by fair mainstay, Jack's Lemonade Stand; sink your teeth into delicious broasted chicken prepared by Kevin Bechler; and don't forget to save room for dessert at the Cook's Farm Dairy ice cream booth. YUM! Also at Springfield Oaks Built prior to 1872, the historic James Harvey Davis House served as the residence for the golf course caretaker until 1938, and then as the golf course clubhouse until 1973. Even after restoration by the Springfield Township Historical Society, the home's hardwood floors still bear the marks of more than 40 years of golf spikes. Tours are offered by the historical society. The nationally-historic Ellis Barn was relocated from Dixie Highway in Clarkston to Springfield Oaks County Park in 2005. All of the 4-H exhibits and displays are housed in the barn during the County Fair. The Ellis Barn represents a significant period of Photo Key Michigan's agricultural and transportation history and provides a unique setting for educational opportunities. Constructed in 1884, the barn features a true gambrel 1.
