Brown County Fairgrounds

No matter the time of year, there seems to always be activity at the fairgrounds. Throughout the summer there are lots of activities with car races and, of course, the Brown County Fair. In the winter, while many of the buildings are used for storage, the Holum Expo Building is quite busy with Hockey, the annual Bull-a-Rama, and shows like the annual Liebelt's camper show. It's a busy place, all year long!
