Josephine County Fairgrounds Pavilion Renovation Completed

JOSEPHINE COUNTY, Ore. — Visitors to the Evergreen Federal Pavilion at the Josephine County Fairgrounds will be greeted by new flooring, upgraded lighting and upgraded restrooms, the results of a recently completed renovation.
Portions of the multi-year renovation effort were funded in part by the Oregon State Lottery and administered by the Oregon Business Development Department. Interior paint was donated by the Grants Pass Rodda Paint Company.
“On behalf of the Josephine County Fair Board, I’m pleased to announce the successful completion of this remodeling project,” said Tamra Martin, Josephine County Recreation director. “The Fair Board would like to say special thank you to the crew at Rodda Paint for their donation and their continued support that they show the Josephine County Fairgrounds. It’s our community partnerships that keep us strong.”
This renovation effort was originally kicked off with funding from the American Rescue Protection Act with upgrades in the restrooms including touchless facilities.
The Pavilion is over 14,000 square feet and features a kitchenette and a commercial kitchen that is used year-round by the community for a variety of events including weddings, concerts, vendor sales, banquets and fundraisers. This building is an essential part of the Fairgrounds success and was rented out 52 times in 2024.
