Jefferson County Fairgrounds Ticket Booth A ticket booth that was a long-standing symbol of the Jefferson County Fair is now owned by the 4 River Valleys Historical Society. The Watertown City Council sold the building to the 4RVHS in June 1999. The structure has stood on the fairgrounds since 1853 and is now used by the 4RVHS for exhibits during the annual Jefferson County Fair. It is the building that many associate with the county fair with the longest unbroken annual run in the country. The Society has experience in preserving structures, and, now that they own the ticket booth, it is being kept in a historical context. |
