History of the Navajo County Fair

The inaugural Navajo County Fair took place in Taylor in 1926. However, in 1931, the County Supervisors made the decision to relocate the fair to Holbrook. This move was prompted by Holbrook’s status as the County Seat and its central position within the county. To accommodate the fair and other events, permanent fairgrounds and additional facilities were constructed in Holbrook. Today, the committee is dedicated to providing a top-notch experience for both athletes and attendees looking to experience the Navajo County Fair and Rodeo.

Biography:

I grew up on a Midwest farm with dirt under my fingernails and the sound of wind rustling through cornfields. My childhood was all about 4H – raising pigs and horses, learning to bake and sew, and discovering the magic of transforming a garden into jars of summer sunshine. Those years taught me the value of hard work, the thrill of seeing a project through to the end, and the simple joy of creating something beautiful. A country girl with a need for speed and a thirst for adventure. Maybe that's why I love the feeling of wind in my hair – whether I'm cruising down a dusty road on my Harley or tackling a mountain trail on my trusty mountain bike. Some of my earliest memories of rodeo are watching my father compete at small local events. That's also where my love for country music comes in – long car rides listening to 8 tracks. The lyrics and melodies always spoke to my soul. These days, you'll find me cheering on the cowboys and cowgirls at rodeos, two-stepping to my favorite bands, belting out a country tune at a concert or sharing stories and laughter with friends around a bonfire. When I'm not soaking up the country life and getting my boots dirty, I'm a nurse, caring for folks in my community. Follow along for more stories from the heart of rodeo and country life!
