Membership

McHenry County is a wonderful place to own a business, send our youth to school and provide quality entertainment for those that live here. The McHenry County Fair Association is dedicated to helping our community continue to be an excellent place to live and raise our families. We would like to find members willing to help the McHenry County Fair and all that we do.

The McHenry County Fair Association provides quality education opportunities during year round events that are either held on the Fairgrounds, or run by the McHenry County Fair Association. We work closely with the McHenry County Farm Bureau and the McHenry County Extension office. Currently the Association’s members work to make sure there is family and outdoor entertainment available year round on the fairgrounds.

By becoming an association member and being able to vote, we can share new ideas to help our community. We need you! If you want to be part of a growing and dynamic organization, help to make the fair a success, and support the McHenry County Community, please consider becoming a member of the McHenry County Fair Association. You must be a member to sit on a committee.

Annual membership dues of $10.00 or lifetime dues of $130.00 per member will need to be paid for application to be completed. Applications are due in the fair office by August 6, 2023, prior to 6:00 pm for membership that runs from September 2023-August 2024. With your lifetime membership you will receive a season pass for the fair every year.

Your completed application with payment of dues will need to be received by the last day of the fair (August 6, 2023 by 6pm) to ensure membership with full voting privileges for the next year.

A paper application (Click Here to download) and dues can be dropped off at the Fair Office during office hours. If you are dropping off your application and dues during the fair, please come to the office during the hours of 9:00 am to 6:00 pm. If you wish to mail your application and dues, please make certain your return is postmarked no later than August 6, 2023.


The annual meeting will be held on September 20st in building D at the fairgrounds.
