Family-friendly, free fair

Why is it called a free fair when the carnival costs money? In 1915. Rep. Paul Nesbitt of McAlester presented a bill to allow county Carnival kids ride commissions to operate “free fairs” and use tax money to pay the event’s expenses. The Cleveland County Fair remains free in that we don’t charge for entry or parking and there are many fun, free events put on by our fair board.
