parking fee. Smith said his
staff is reviewing the rentals
charged to groups who use
the Farm Show building
throughout the year.
And then, of course,
there’s the $ll million just
appropriated by the state
legislature for renovation
and repairs. “That money
will be spent to bring the
buildings into line with the
fire and panic codes,” Smith
noted. “There’s really
nothing there for expansion.
The exits aren’t right, the
wiring’s going bad. The
officials don’t like our doors.
“The roof is two-inch
wooden planks, and it’s been
on for 24 years. It’s leaky and
has to be replaced before we
put in a lot of new wiring.
And the old metal building in
the rear has to be completely
tom down and rebuilt.”
A move to build a new
Farm Show complex, to be
named the - Keystone Ex

“You can’t ever predict what
the legislature is going to do,
but I don’t think they’ll
forget about a Keystone
Expo just because we’re
fixing up the old buildings.
“We had come to a
crossroads. These buildings
had been neglected for so
long that something just had
to be done, and that’s why we
got the appropriation.
