 on 104.3 FM, KSLM. It's back. The Marion County Fair returns this year better than ever. All the things you love about a county fair can be found in Salem July 11th through the 14th, including animals, full-rate shows and judging, the carnival, displays and demonstrations, and of course, fair food. Kids will have a blast and learn things of circus imagination and can meet an alligator up close and personal.
