Our Story

Building Community, Celebrating Tradition, Inspiring Growth

In 2005, the Dunn County Fair Association envisioned a space dedicated to serving Dunn County and its surrounding communities. What began as an idea has since grown into the High Plains Community Center, a cornerstone for events, programs, and opportunities that bring people together.

From Vision to Reality

The continued growth of the center is the direct result of the hard work and perseverance of both past and present Board of Directors. The organization became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, enabling the expansion of services – including charitable gaming – so that the Dunn County Fair Association could better fulfill its mission of serving the community.

Dedicated Leadership & Growth

Today, DCFA & HPCC proudly hosts the annual Dunn County Fair as well as additional wide range of events: fundraisers, auctions, concerts, sports, safety meetings, vendor shows, weddings, private gatherings, and many other community events.

A Hub for Connection

As we continue to move forward, we remain committed to growth and innovation, continuing to bring hope, connection, and new opportunities to the people and communities we serve.
