Greetings all,
His Excellency Marcellus, and I visited the Loudoun
County Fairgrounds this afternoon to see what they
have done with the place. And boy have they done great
things with the place.
Most people are familiar with the old barn for the
livestock shows. Well they have a new barn and this is
the one we want. It is about 100 feet by 150 feet,
enclosed with four big doors, one for each side, and
six smaller exit doors. The walls have some
insulation, and places to hang banners, streamers,
criminals.. you know the usual stuff. The floor is a
light gravel/sand mixture, with very, very little
dust. If you remember how dusty the old barn is, you
will love this. There are also about 20 odd picnic
tables on site, that we should ask to move into the
hall, and some benches as well.
The place is so huge one could host an entire event
inside it.

Oh the possiblities.
This is the map from the recent Loudon Fair, in pdf.
The barn we want is called the "Livestock Barn with
Show Ring".
