It's no secret that the annual Evergreen State Fair is the busiest time of the year at the Fairgrounds, but what you might not know is how many projects our hardworking maintenance staff undertake all year round to improve our facilities. Recently, our maintenance team refilled and surfaced both outdoor equestrian arenas, added new drains in Barn 608 and upgraded the South end of Barn 106. Barn 106 is the last of the four Horse Barns to be upgraded. Earlier in February, the maintenance team removed the horse stalls and replaced the uneven clay floors with fresh pavement and rubber mats. Leveling the ground in the stalls makes them safer for both people and animals and is much easier for people to maintain clean conditions. The North end of the barn is expected to be updated later this fall to complete the multi-year project.
Other upcoming projects the maintenance team is working on at the Fairgrounds include adding a seal coat to the floors in Barn 608 and updating restrooms in The Beef Pavilion (Building 600), near Barn 103 and in the Indoor Arena. We are so grateful for the hard working staff that keeps our facilities functioning through every season.
