What does it take to transform 600 acres of historic fairgrounds for the next century of agriculture? 🎡🚜

In this episode of Beyond the Gate, Jamie sits down inside the brand-new Michael L. Parson Arena with engineer, lifelong cattleman, and Missouri State Fair Foundation Chairman Chad Sayre! 🎙️🐄

Chad pulls back the curtain on the multi-million dollar master plan reshaping the Sedalia fairgrounds—from replacing 22-year-old barn sand to expanding across 600 acres, relocating Clarendon Road, and building a massive 600-site campground! He also shares why community feedback from all 114 Missouri counties is shaping the future, and why the state fair remains the ultimate "front porch" of Missouri agriculture.
