Today, we remember and honor. 🕊️❤️

On this Memorial Day, the Steele County Free Fair pauses to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. We are profoundly grateful for the heroes who gave everything to protect our freedom, allowing us to gather and celebrate as a community year after year.

Our deepest respect and gratitude go out to the Gold Star families who carry their legacy forward.

Wishing our entire Steele County community, vendors, and fairgoers a safe, peaceful, and meaningful Memorial Day. 🎖️✨
