WHITNEY POINT (WBNG) It s all hands on deck at Whitney Point Fairgrounds in preparation for the 146th Annual Broome County Fair.
After the pandemic postponed the 2020 fair, Board President Gary Cornell said preparations for this year s fair require a little extra attention. It s getting everything in line and making sure the vendors know where they go and get things ready, Cornell said. We didn t have a fair last year so we ve had more repairs than we thought we would have because things didn t get used.
For one fair participant preparing and packing for a week at the fair is similar to packing for a camping trip.
