If I understand the preemption law correctly, they could have a bad day or two or three if they try to enforce that.

I have an opinion about that. Since I frequent this gun forum and many others I'm sure you can guess what my opinion is

It looks like they don't like the handicapped either. And then there's this: IC 35-47-11-2.

Handicap parking can't be accessed by that entrance. Have to enter at different gate.

I've done some research on the no fiream thing...

Who owns the fairgrounds?

Who runs the fair?

Does a private organization rent the fairgrounds for the fair? (As in Porter County)

Exactly my thoughts. In my county the fair is operated by a private organization set up specifically to organize and operate the county fair, so the county won't take the risk of taking a loss. They rent/lease the fairgrounds for the event. I'm not sure who actually owns the fairgrounds here either which would be moot if they're rented by the private fair committee.

Look, I would point out what's wrong but what do you want ME to do? File a Freedom of Information Act request about this? I have no idea if a judge is reading this or not.

History ? Bartholomew County 4-H Fair

The ground was previously used as a county farm located at 200 S. and St. Rd. 11 and is now the Bartholomew County 4-H Fair, Inc. fairgrounds.

As they are listed on this nonprofit lookup site (Indiana Nonprofit Database ), looks like a non-governmental entity owns the grounds.

Concealed means concealed.

^^^^^^ Yup... ^^^^^^

Looking the part of an upstanding person comes in handy, too.

OK, we have the contrast between 'upstanding' and 'pants sagging'.

the Bartholomew County GIS says the Board of Commissioners of Bartholomew County is the title owner.

Owner of the grounds is irrelevant. Important thing is who runs the fair. They get to set the rules.

Its not completely irrelevant, but dictates the mechanism.

If the County Commissioners leases the facilities to the 4H, then that lease should be available via an APRA request. If there is no lease, then the 4H doesn't have the necessary property interest (probably) to ban the firearms under the pre-emption law.

Simple solution. Don't go to that fair. Yes concealed no one would know but I have morals and values and will not suport busness, activitys, clubs, or events that are organized by those who want to disarm us.
