As the years passed Marsh Valley Fair took the place of Downey's Black and White Days, and Olson helped to set up rings anil mangers. There were no buildings available at that lime. Livestock had to be tied up where a place could be found. Exhibits were made in tents.

In 1042, Olson was chosen superintendent of the livestock division of the Marsh Valley Fair. The city then bought the Municipal building and 10 other buildings were bought by the fair board to hold the various, exhibits which came in to make lie fair a success, Soon additional exhibits shown at school buildings and business houses in town. Many people expressed the desire to have more of the fair activities centralized at Ihe city park where the housing was located.
