Fairgrounds Infrastructure & Restroom Expansion
Modern restrooms, improved utilities, and ADA accessibility will keep the Lake County Fairgrounds ready for bigger events and a stronger role in the community.
WHAT it is
This project will modernize and expand the Lake County Fairgrounds, home to more than 70 annual events that bring thousands of visitors to Ronan. Improvements include larger, ADA-compliant restrooms, upgraded water, sewer, and electrical systems, and better accessibility so the fairgrounds can host bigger gatherings year-round.
HOW it works
The project expands restrooms in the Community Center and Horticulture Barn, upgrades sewer, water, and electrical systems, and adds ADA-compliant features. These changes will make the fairgrounds more comfortable, accessible, and ready for larger events.
Key elements include:
- Modernized, expanded restrooms
- Reliable utilities for vendors and events
- Accessibility improvements for all visitors
WHY it matters
This project is more than a quick fix. The designs and plans created now will guide future improvements for years to come, helping Ronan grow in a way that is safe, connected, and welcoming for everyone.
Supports 70+ Annual Events
Upgrades will make it easier for the fairgrounds to handle larger crowds at signature events like Lights Under the Big Sky and the Chainsaw Rendezvous.
Improves Visitor Experience
Modern restrooms and reliable utilities make festivals, markets, and gatherings more comfortable and enjoyable for attendees.
Boosts Tourism and Local Economy
By attracting larger events, Ronan will see increased visitor spending, more overnight stays, and stronger business activity.
