The McHenry County Fair is a longtime tradition to which residents of the area and visitors from beyond the county borders look forward each summer. This is your guide to fair facts, fare and fun, with a schedule of events, a map of the fairgrounds and features on events and attractions which bring some 80,000 fairgoers to the grounds on the south side of Woodstock every year. The guide also tells you about some of the people, both in front of the crowds and behind the scenes, who work all year-round to make the first week in August a success.
