The showgrounds are closed for renovations until the end of 2012. You can pull over near the Info Centre and Calico Cottage, but it's right on the highway with a lot of trucks going by. It was suggested that we try the hall on the corner of Chadford Street and High Street. It's grassed and there's a toilet...
