Evergreen State Fair Administration — Local services in Monroe

Don't bother to buy carnival ride tickets/bracelets online. There was only one line where you could use the printed passes to get a bracelet. It was a 40 minute wait!! They finally opened one additional ticket counter to accept them after the crowd revolted. Those that downloaded to phones still had to wait in the looong slooow line. Poor planning and management!

The animal barns were fun to walk through. Food was typical, but higher priced than previous years. I was told by a vendor that the County was getting a larger percentage of sales...hence the higher prices.

I felt like I was under attack in the retail buildings. There must have been 20 skin cream booths all ready to pounce.

Entrance staff wouldn't let my grandson use the porta potties near the entrance. I thought that was really a bad call.

Maybe just an off day...but I think I'll pass on this...

I loved all the animals!! 4-h rocks! I would definitely recommend this fair next year to parents who have small children! They would all adore the...
