Steele County Fair to Honor Frontline Workers with a Free Show The Steele County Free Fair board is deeply grateful to frontline workers and will treat everyone to a free show in front of the grandstand while honoring those who were, and still are, on the forefront of the pandemic. Wednesday, August 18 Jason Pritchett performs, with Owatonna's own Travis Thamert as the opening act. Come on out. Help honor and support all the frontline workers in Steele County...Without all these frontline workers, it wouldn't have happened. We wouldn't be back to having a fair in 2021 -Scott Kozelka, Steele Co Fair manager
