The new park is huge.... Hans marked the Premium Office in blue.
I wonder if the soccer field will still allow concert venues.

Over the past few years, Garden City Council has discussed what to do with the land near the Fairgrounds 🎡and the race track, including the possibility of moving the Fairgrounds. After extensive discussions about various options such as housing (including low-income) 🏘️, light industrial development 🏭, and hotels 🏨, I believe we have arrived at the best solution for this area.

Don’t worry; we have a slightly larger parking area right next to the barns 🚜, as long as everyone cooperates. Those who participated last year will recognize the location. We’ve been given a bit more space this time—not huge, but very functional—and it’s conveniently located near the barns, which means less walking 🚶‍♂️. More information will be provided as we get closer to the Fair 🎉.
Reminder, no overnight parking, please plan accordingly and get a spot reserved early at the Boise Riverside RV Park,
