Missouri State Fairgrounds

One thing about people here in our area - we love getting dirty.  We love being out in nature, and we love action packed sporting events.  Lucky for us, we have all three of those elements coming together this weekend for the Mike Burkhalter Memorial Truck and Tractor pull will be on Saturday, June 7 on the Missouri State Fairgrounds.

Here's a look at the events going on in our area this weekend.

Child Safe is hosting their annual Adult Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 12 at the Missouri State Fairgrounds.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and autism are both general terms for a group of complex disorders of brain development. These disorders are characterized, in varying degrees, by difficulties in social interaction, verbal and nonverbal communication and repetitive behaviors.  It's difficult to diagnose, difficult to treat, and difficult to understand.

The Central Missouri Ag Club is happy to announce the winners of their annual photo contest. This year’s theme was “This is MY Agriculture.”  Winners received $100 for first place, $75 for second and $50 for third place in both the youth and adult division.

Here's a look at some of the events going on this weekend.

The Central Missouri Agriculture Club is sponsoring the upcoming Ag Expo.  It’ll be on Friday, Feb. 7 from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Saturday, Feb. 8 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. in the Mohler Assembly Hall and the Mathewson Exhibition center on the Missouri State Fairgrounds.

Usually around this time of year you have to search for something cool to do.  Well, something warm to do that's fun, I guess I should say.  It's so cold out that nobody really wants to spend a huge amount of time outside.  That's why we've got the huge Cabin Fever Sports Show, and it's getting closer by the day.

The Central Missouri Agriculture Club will have their Pie Contest, Auction and Banquet on January 25. It’ll take place at the Pork Place at the Missouri State Fairgrounds.

The Cabin Fever Sport Show sponsored by Angler’s Port Marine and Rustic Creek Outfitters is coming back to the Mathewson Exhibition Center on the Missouri State Fairgrounds on Feb. 1 from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. and Feb 2 from 10 a.m. - 3 p.m.
