RV Park
Who can request a space?
You must be affiliated with the livestock program in order to request a space. Priority is given to 4H Community Leaders & FFA Teachers, followed by Primary 4H Carded Leaders and equitable Grange & FFA counterparts (defined by fair), and finally are parents. Independent leaders, assistant leaders, along with horse and dog leaders do not qualify for priority access and may qualify in the parent group if they have exhibiting children.
What's the process for offering spaces?
After the number of vacancies has been determined, we will go through the interest list and start determining how many requests have been made for each of the priority groups. If we do not have enough spaces to offer everyone in the priority group a space, we will go to a random drawing for that group. The Fair Board reserves the right to add other factors into determining space priorities at anytime.
I saw a lot of vacancies, why aren't you filling them?
The full hook up lot was built in the 1980s before RVs had slideouts and 50 amp circuits. The park is intentionally not filled in order to provide the space and power to accommodate current RV specifications.
We do not immediately fill the dry lots in order to insure all of our vendors/concessionairs have been accommodated. Once we are certain there are empty spots, we will reach out to the next person on the list. Anyone caught sneaking in an RV to an unfilled space will be receive a lifetime ban.
How will we be notified if we are or not being offered a spot?
The majority of the communications pertaining to the RV park will come via email from the address rv@ivfairgrounds.com. Please ensure you have whitelisted this address so you do not miss any emails. If you fail to respond to emails by predetermined dates, any offers will be forfeited and will be offered to the next person on the list. It is not the fair's responsibility to continually attempt to make contact to ensure you have received any communications sent to you.
