From the reviews

the fairgrounds are a great place for running, there's a track, a big field, a bunch of steps if you like to run steps. I've been there a hundred times but i have never actually been to a fair or event at it.

…The walking track has been upgraded REALLY nicely and its perfect for an autumn walk outdoors.

Awesome 1 half mile track. Only one around! Unfortunately cinder track, county should of spent the $ and laid down rubber track when it was revamped several years ago......

★★★★☆ — Dave, Dec 2016

I like running the track. The crushed stone surface is a relief to running on pavement. The port o johns are clean. It's nice to see the county police horses.
