HUTCHINSON, Kan. – Although the Kansas State Fair is still over a week away, work on the grounds in Hutchinson is in full swing including one carnival ride already going up, that being the “White Water.” The rest of the rides should arrive next week.

And a number of the trailers used for selling food have also begun to show up as well. Some of the exhibitors have also starting bringing items on to the fairgrounds.

Of course gate and night show tickets have been on sale for awhile and are still available at the administration building on the fairgrounds as well as online at www.kansasstatefair.com.
