OKANOGAN, Wash. — Plans
are being made to spend the
$8,000 state grant to the Okanogan
County Fair on new buildings
and improvements at the
County Fairgrounds near here,
fair Secretary Mrs. Cecil Tugaw
reported Wednesday.

Mrs. Tugaw said the $8,000
included a $6,500 general grant
and a $1,500 emergency grant.

The emergency grant was created
by a 1963 fire which destroyed
six barns on the fairgrounds.
Four of the six were
replaced with steel buildings
last summer.

Fair directors are planning
to build a new sheep and swine
barn with part of this year's
state grant. State funds come
from the state para-mutual race
track funds.

Fair directors have approved
the appointment of Byron McClanahaan
of Riverside as assistant
fair manager. Homer
Bryan is manager.

Bryan has requested all changes
and insertions for the fair
premium book be reported by
the March 16 meeting of the
board. Wally Vog of Brewster
is in charge of the fair book.
