Morgan County Fair

From Morgan County Fair Website:

October 6th - 15th, 2016

The Morgan County Fair has been an annual event (67 years and going strong!) in Decatur, Alabama since the Jaycees started organizing it in 1949. The Tennessee Valley Exposition, a non-profit corporation, operates the Fair. The Fair was originally located on Highway 20. In 1963 that location became prime industrial property and the Fair was moved to its current location which was, at the time, on the outskirts of town. The City has since grown up all around the fairgrounds creating an ideal location for the Fair in the middle of Decatur.
Today the Tennessee Valley Exposition (TVE) is made up of a group of volunteers who work year round to bring ten days of good wholesome family entertainment to Morgan County. Many civic groups have projects associated with the Fair and the proceeds from the Fair still go into various community projects.

The Morgan County Fair is more than rideswe have something to offer for everyone. Individual and commercial exhibits are on display daily until 9pm each night. Individual exhibits include prize fruits and vegetables grown by area farmers, photography and crafts created by area artists and hobbyist, quilts, collections, and horticulture exhibits, and baked goods.
The Fair takes in these exhibits on Saturday and Sunday before the fair begins on the following Thursday. If you have something to contribute, the TVE encourages you to bring your entries. After all it is YOUR fair!
