Maryland promoter plans new fairground near Frederick
Frances Lynch, developer of the Maryland Christmas Show at Frederick Fairgrounds, seeks county approval to convert Lynfield Farm into a family entertainment fairground. The 140 acre site off Hansonville Road would feature seven buildings, tented exhibitor areas, and parking for about 2,000 cars. Lynch aims to host arts and crafts events with a October Maryland Mountain Festival and notes a phased plan over five years, with initial access through a two lane road and gravel parking. She plans to restore the Howard Stevens Airport hangar as a reception hall and emphasizes not creating a traditional fairground or competing with existing venues. Parking and space shortages at the Frederick Fairgrounds push the new project forward. Continued from page A-10.
