BIG day for the Lee Co. Fair Association. We are grateful to work with our community and are now owners of "new to us" bleachers, making room in The Harbor at Amboy High School for new bleachers!

Thank you to our board members and extra help - Adam Henkel, Gary Morris, and Drew Montavon. AND extra thanks to Brian Eisele at Eisele Crane Service!

10 gooseneck trailers, a crane, a few skid loaders, and a dozen volunteers who never shy away from a challenge! That's how we do things for the Lee Co. Fair. 😁
