Join us on Sunday, October 18, 2026 from 1:00 – 4:00 PM at the Jaycee’s Cole County Fairgrounds (1445 Fairgrounds Road) for our second annual FarmFest event featuring Cow Patty Bingo! Watch as local show cows meander the giant bingo card — purchase a square for $20 from a JC Parks and Recreation Foundation Member or call 573-634-6577. Wait to see where the patty falls over multiple rounds. If the cow drops a patty on your square, you win a cash prize 💸. While you wait, enjoy Farmfest — a collection of agricultural booths and vendors with hands-on activities, games, demonstrations, and music. In “udder” words, fun for the whole family.
