State Fair Speedway Contributes to State Fair Community College Capital Campaign Effort

The future of agricultural and transportation education at State Fair Community College is given a financial boost by the State Fair Speedway.

Larry McCowan from the speedway recently presented State Fair and the State Fair Foundation with a check for $1,000 to go toward the future 60,000-square-foot $20-million Center for Advanced Agriculture and Transportation Technology.

The center is expected to be the cornerstone of State Fair’s efforts to enhance hands-on-training and expand career opportunities in agriculture.

The donation from the speedway was recently presented as part of State Fair’s “Driving Growth, Harvesting Tomorrow” capital campaign.
