Highland County Fair

The first full week of September found hundreds of people - including us! - gathered at the fairgrounds for the Highland County Fair! Our office participated fully in the fair experience, especially showing our support for the youth of our area. We encouraged the efforts of the young fair-goers by helping purchase the Reserve Grand Champion Feeder Calf, Grand Champion Meat Goat, Grand Champion Dairy Goat, Reserve Grand Champion Meat Poultry Pen and Ethan Dickey's Market Goat. We supported the Butter Sales and the Lisa Kisling Scholarship Fund. Every project was outstanding! Our future community leaders are built through the positive youth activities of today! It is our pleasure to encourage the development of skills that are a part of 4-H and FFA projects.

Our team members enjoyed visiting with the community at our booth in the Wharton Building! On Labor Day, which the fair board hosts as Senior Citizens Day, 1000 ice cream cups sweetened the day! Five hundred Dickey Group t-shirts were scattered over the fair grounds throughout the week! Our daily giveaways and door prizes made the fair a fun event!

The entire Dickey Group wishes to thank everyone who puts in the extra effort year after year to make The Highland County Fair a truly wonderful community enriching experience!
