Biergarten Structure At Fair Planned For Jubilee Year
Plans unveil a 40 by 60 foot Biergarten to be built south of the Exhibition Hall office area using fair operation income. It will provide seating, restrooms next year, soft daytime music, occasional bands, and a sand floor watered each morning to reduce breakage. The project, approved by stockholders, aims to attract elderly visitors and may host 4 H and FIFA events in bad weather with a possible later 40 by 40 foot extension. Stein Lumber Co. won the bid to construct, with completion by fair time for the three day event and a strong parade planned for opening morning. Mrs. O Ruskey of Alvin visited and attended to business during the stay.
