Get ready for some Moo’in & Groovin’ July 12-20, 2024, at the Ellis County Fairgrounds. The Ellis County Fair wouldn’t be possible without the exhibitors and volunteers who donate their time, along with 4-H members, Extension agents, County Commissioners, superintendents, and countless others that step up and answer our call for help.
The Ellis County Fair Association is reaching out to the community for help this year for our inflatable carnival workers and car parkers. This is a paid volunteer opportunity for individuals or groups. Carnival workers get paid $10 per hour with a potential $50 bonus if they work all five days (Tuesday through Saturday). Hours of work will be 5 to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

Car parkers get paid $10 per hour with a potential $40.00 bonus if they work all five days. Hours will vary for car parkers per event. To register for car parkers, use this link - https://www.signupgenius.com/go/904084CA8AC2AA5F49-48865797-ellis
Ellis County 4-Her’s will be busy entering and competing in different project areas and you are invited to come see what they can do! Visit the barns and check out all the animals or stroll through the Schenk building to see the indoor exhibits. This year our grandstand lineup will include two nights of races, two nights of rodeo, barrel racing, and two nights of Monster Trucks! Purchase your all week pass for only $35 in advance. We will continue with the inflatable carnival, laser tag, virtual reality roller coaster, and games. Mutton busting, face painting, and a Little Kids and Big Rigs event are just a few of the fun things planned for the family! We will have a petting zoo on the midway along with free concerts and plenty of seating and food vendors to satisfy your appetite. This year we are moving indoor commercial exhibits to our building on the midway so be sure to stop by those booths. We also couldn’t do it without all our wonderful and supporting sponsors. Their sponsorship of the fair keeps the week pass at a low cost to everyone.
