The Country Sweethearts dinner and auction in February filled both the Commercial and the 4-H buildings at the Grant County Fairgrounds nearly to capacity. A proposed event center at the fairgrounds would provide a place to hold more events of that size, according to Fairgrounds Manager Jim McKiernan.

Design starting for event center at Grant Fairgrounds

MOSES LAKE — A preliminary design for a new event center across the street from the Grant County Fairgrounds could be finished this year. The existing fairgrounds complex is scheduled for some upgrades sometime this year, including additional lighting in a spot that’s very popular during the fair. Fairgrounds manager Jim McKiernan said the event venue would be something a little different for Grant County. “Our goal is to be able to host a 750-person event, with catering, kitchens and some breakout rooms, and stuff like that,” McKiernan said.
