Rural Missouri - August 2022 - 12
Buckets of
FUN
Missourians plan for ag showcase
by Paul Newton | pnewton@ruralmissouri.coop
M
issouri's agriculture showcase is almost here.
From deep-fried bites to rides in the midway
to showing that perfect pig, the state fair has
something for everyone. The fair runs from Aug.
11-21 with entertainment available across the fairgrounds.
The grandstand has a full lineup highlighted by Sam Hunt
on Aug. 13 and ZZ Top on Aug. 17.
Be sure your visit includes a stop at the Missouri's
Electric Cooperatives Building, located across from the
grandstand. The building is open daily from 9 a.m. to 7
p.m. and showcases the work Missouri's electric cooperatives
do to make rural Missouri a great place to live and
play. Ground-source heat pumps offer a reprieve from the
late-summer heat. Co-op personnel are on hand to answer
questions, and there are displays on energy efficiency,
safety and cooperative youth programs.
In the Rural Missouri area there are displays of our
favorite stories, our popular " People From Our Pages " demonstrators
and you can have your photo taken in front of a
mural depicting Rural Missouri mascot Buddy Bear. Or you
can meet him in person if you visit the building at 10 a.m.,
noon or 2 p.m. daily from Aug. 12-20.
Attending college or trade school this fall?
