Misson Statement:

The primary purpose of the Hunt County Fair and Livestock Show is to conduct an annual celebration of the youth, agricultural, educational, economic, cultural and institutional strengths indigenous to our area with a special emphasis on agriculture. The Fair will offer various forms of affordable entertainment and amusement for families and friends, and showcase the talents, skills and aspiration of our youth. The Fair will also promote agricultural growth and awareness through educational programs, competitions in breeding and showing of livestock, and by promoting and supporting the education of local children by providing scholarships.

The Fair administration will proficiently and effectively promote the ongoing use of the Fairgrounds to realize the full potential of the Fair as a leading center for exhibitions, trade shows, agricultural events, and cultural and entertainment productions. At the same time, the Fair administration will foster pride and maximize revenue while preserving the character and tradition of the Fair.
