Originally built in 1918, the Exhibition Hall served as the centerpiece for fairs and community celebrations during the early years of the Kendall County Fair Association. On February 17, 1984, a devastating fire destroyed the 66-year-old structure. The building that stands today is a proud reconstruction, made possible through generous donations and countless volunteer hours from directors, auxiliary members, and the local community. Inside, visitors will find a thoughtfully recreated President’s Wall honoring past leadership, along with display cases preserving decades of fair history. Please note that it does not include a kitchen and is not equipped with a stage.
