State Fair = Family Vacation

The Missouri State Fair in Sedalia is a great agriculture showcase – and for many – a tourist destination. On Ag Day at the fair this week, a Centralia farmer and his wife said they made it their family vacation by camping at the fairgrounds with their three young children.

Brownfield caught up with farmer Dwain Shelton on Monday at the State Fair. He says their fair vacation is a lot more economical than a road trip and there’s plenty for them to enjoy.

The 2011 Missouri State Fair completes its 10-day run Sunday, August 21st.
