ABOUT THE VENUE

About the Fairgrounds
The Wasco County Fairgrounds and W.E. Hunt Park are located in Tygh Valley, Oregon. The fairgrounds are home to the annual Wasco County Fair, which has been held here since 1937 when it was merged with the Southern Wasco County Fair. When not in use for the fair, the park and fairgrounds host a variety of events from the Bluegrass Jamboree in the fall to church camps in the spring.
W.E. Hunt Park
Hunt Park was originally owned by W.E. "Billy" Hunt and family. After his death in 1937, Mrs. Hunt and her children donated the 40 acres to Wasco County to serve as a park. It still bears his name as a memorial.
