Kibble Equipment at the South Dakota State Fair: Celebrating Community

Kibble Equipment at the South Dakota State Fair: A Tradition We’re Proud to Share
Kibble Equipment at the South Dakota State Fair is more than a sponsorship—it’s a tradition of community, agriculture, and connection. Each year, our team looks forward to being part of this celebration that brings families, neighbors, and friends together across South Dakota.
Every year, when the gates open at the South Dakota State Fair, it feels like the whole state comes together. You can smell the fair food, hear the buzz of laughter and music, and see families and friends reconnecting after a busy summer. For us at Kibble Equipment, being part of this “Great Reunion” isn’t just about setting up in the Machinery Area—it’s about being part of a tradition that celebrates agriculture, community, and connection.
More Than Just Equipment on Display
If you’ve stopped by our space at the fair, you know it’s not just a row of tractors and combines parked neatly in place. Sure, we love showcasing the latest John Deere technology, but what excites us most is the conversations. Farmers swapping stories about planting seasons, kids climbing up into a cab for the first time, and neighbors catching up while checking out what’s new in precision ag—those are the moments that make the fair special.
The South Dakota State Fair gives us a chance to do what we love most: connect with the people who keep agriculture strong in our state.
A Partnership That Gives Back
Being a Platinum Sponsor of the fair is one way we invest in the communities we serve. Sponsorship isn’t just about putting our name on a sign; it’s about making sure events like this continue to bring people together year after year. From livestock shows to youth programs, we know how much these opportunities mean to families, and we’re proud to help make them possible.
For our team, the fair isn’t work—it’s an opportunity to roll up our sleeves, talk with customers and friends, and share in the excitement of an event that belongs to everyone.
Celebrating the Next Generation
One of the best parts of fair week is seeing young people shine. Whether it’s 4-H projects, FFA competitions, or kids showing their animals, the fair is where the next generation of ag leaders really gets to step into the spotlight. Supporting that growth matters to us. We know the future of agriculture depends on their passion, creativity, and hard work.
When we see a student beam with pride as they talk about their project, it reminds us why we do what we do. Agriculture is more than equipment—it’s a way of life, and it’s our responsibility to keep it thriving for years to come.
Looking Ahead Together
As we look toward another South Dakota State Fair, we’re excited to bring our equipment, our team, and our passion for community back to Huron. But more than that, we’re excited to see old friends, make new ones, and celebrate the industry that brings us all together.
The fair is about connection—neighbors meeting at the machinery lot, kids experiencing something new, and families carrying on traditions. At Kibble Equipment, we’re honored to be part of it, and we can’t wait to see you there.
