KFN’s coverage of the first day of the Klamath County Fair is brought to you by Excel Auto Body and Art’s Towing.

The first day of the Klamath County Fair did not disappoint. The entertainment was strong, food was excellent, vendors were friendly and outgoing. But most importantly, 4-H and FFA Members began showing their animals - poultry, dairy, meat & pygmy goats, sheep, dairy cattle, and beef.

Entertainment for day one of the fair was headlined by the 2018 ACM Winner for New Vocal Duo or Group of the Year, Midland, in side the Event Center.

Today, Friday, August 2, the festivities continue showcasing the best of what Klamath County has to offer. 4-H and FFA members will be showing swine, beef, sheep, and goat. Entertainers Alfred & Seymour, The Band Fresh, The Rock Bottom Boys all play the KLAD main stage. Jon Wolfe brings his traditional country sounds to the big stage as he headlines the tonight’s entertainment. And finally, Jessie Leigh will rock the Catch Pen after the Jon Wolfe concert.

Be sure to check out the 4-H exhibits and the open exhibits too. There are some very talented people in Klamath County showcasing their work in the fair while trying to earn a blue ribbon.
