May 4th & 5th   - Relay for Life -  Event Info: Relay For Life is a national fundraising event for the American Cancer Society. In 1985 a surgeon in Tacoma, Washington wanted to raise money for the American Cancer Society. He made his way around a track at a local college for 24 hours, more than 83 miles and raised over $27,000 for the fight against cancer. The following year 19 teams joined together to form the first team event to fight cancer. Currently, Relay For Life is held in more than 20 countries around the world with more than three million participants in the United States alone.

Decatur County became involved with Relay For Life in 1995. We began at the Decatur County civic center area and raised $9,000. During the past 10 years we have grown in size with a total of 16 teams and 14 corporate sponsors. We have moved to the Decatur County Fairgrounds with our entertainment activities taking place in the convention center. In 2005, we raised over $43,000. From the beginning of Decatur County’s Relay For Life events we have raised approx. $256,959 for the fight against cancer.

A highlight of the fair is The ‘Fairest of the Fair’ contest and the other pageants that are held for each age group from babies through young adults. Local business partners support the fair with their commercial exhibits and sponsorship of events and shows. Volunteers spend many days entering, displaying and assisting with judging of exhibits and also serving as hostesses of the exhibit building.
