Springfield

There's no admission charge to this arts and crafts showcase, which features nearly 300 booths and demonstrations of all kinds. Many of the demonstrations depict a late 1800s-early 1900s theme. The two-day event features a parade at 10 a.m. Saturday morning, along with country music, dancing, period entertainment, horse-and-mule-obstacle-course demonstrations, threshing, an antique tractor show, and a variety of food and drink.

Many of the activities take place on the grounds around the former Boegel Hine Flour Mill (now known as Fair Grove's Wommack Mill), but the Fair Grove District Park property, located southwest of the show area, will be used for some events, including the antique tractor competition and pony rides.

Trolleys will be available to take guests from outlying parking lots to the show areas.

Fair Grove is located approximately 12 miles north of Springfield, just east of Route 65, on Route 125.

Join us for four days of family fun and a Kansas City Barbecue Society State Barbecue Contest, at South Park in Seymour. In addition to the barbecue contest, this event features fireworks, a classic car show, a kids Q (where kids compete for prizes), activities for children, live music, a 5K walk/run, and hot air balloons.
