The State Fair of West Virginia invites local civic groups and businesses to participate in the 10th Annual Christmas Barn Decorating Contest at the State Fairgrounds in Fairlea. Participants will have the opportunity to decorate one of ten horse barns located adjacent to Route 219 North.

Only the east end of the barns will be decorated and work must be completed by Tuesday, December 1, 2020.
