[August 07, 2017]
On Saturday, August 5th,
just after the chili cook-off winners are announced in the KC
Pavilion, the annual Pie Auction is held before the same crowd. The
pies are made by the best bakers in Logan County and the auction
helps to raise money that keeps "the best and cleanest county fair
in Illinois" going. All funds go to the Logan County Fair
Foundation.
