Logan County Names Darrell and Beryl Wagner 2026 Fair Marshals

Darrell Wagner and Beryl Wagner were named 2026 Logan County Fair marshals by the Logan County Fair Board, a designation recognizing long-standing volunteer service that supports youth exhibitors and keeps fair traditions alive.

The Fair Board announced the selection on January 26, 2026. Darrell Wagner has roots in local agricultural education, showing animals in FFA and serving on the fair board, including a term on the indoor barn committee. Darrell has also helped with county roping and the kids rodeo. Beryl Wagner has been active in horse showing and barrel racing, served as a rodeo attendant, and worked at the Logan County Courthouse. Together, Darrell and Beryl Wagner have supported generations of youth exhibitors through award donations and hands-on help during fair events.

Recognizing the Wagners highlights the volunteer backbone of the Logan County Fair. Volunteer efforts such as serving on committees, running the kids rodeo, and donating awards reduce operating costs for organizers and maintain the programs that draw young people into agriculture and equestrian activities. For Logan County exhibitors, the Wagners’ involvement means continuity: long-running award traditions and steady adult mentorship during livestock shows, rodeos, and horse events.

The appointment also signals broader community value. Programs like FFA, barrel racing, and the kids rodeo act as informal training grounds for skills used in local ranching, farming, and small-business work. Sustained volunteer leadership helps preserve those pipelines of experience, which in turn supports the county’s agricultural economy and the fair’s capacity to attract visitors and vendors.

For county residents, the Wagners’ recognition is both a thank-you and a reminder of the role neighbors play in keeping county fairs viable. Darrell Wagner and Beryl Wagner will be represented as the 2026 marshals throughout this year’s fair activities, and they are expected to continue donating awards and assisting with the kids rodeo. Their selection underscores the practical and cultural importance of volunteer stewardship for Logan County’s fair traditions.

As the community gears up for the 2026 fair season, the Wagners’ marshalship highlights where local energy and commitment are concentrated: hands-on support for youth, steady committee work behind the scenes, and a focus on preserving the events that define Logan County summer gatherings.
