Spokane
Interstate Fair Exhibitor's Guides on-line only…the books will no longer be printed. Many of the 80+ page books were picked up at the libraries by exhibitors desiring to enter only one department and then tossed in the garbage so the decision was made to cease the book's printing…thus helping to "reduce". Information can be found at the following links on the Fair's website (www.interstatefair.org). August 11 - Deadline for Interstate Fair entries (exhibitor's guides are now exclusively on-line)
