Then 5 years ago Noel and his crew: Chance Demarais, Logan Sims, Jason Spencer and David Bond decided to help get the fairgrounds ready for it's 100th. Iver Johannesen & Son's loaned a lift to reach the top of the Grand Stands. They have replaced almost all the roofs on the fairground buildings and trim.
Noel Emond's grandparents Maximil & Eva Emond came to Phillips County in 1916. The Emond Family Ranch will celebrate 100 years in July of 2016. Dusty Emond, the son of Noel and Sharon, is a 4th generation rancher on the home place.
