progress of our new building - DECEMber 2024

Moving right along! The Ross Exposition Center and The Maureen M. Cromling Horse Arena at the Lorain County Fairgrounds is right on schedule as we are closing up the end of the year. The roof is on and we are almost completely closed in. Stay tuned for the next drone footage which will show the front entrance!

progress of our new building - November 2024

Janotta & Herner has exceeded our expectations for the construction of the Ross Expo Center and the Maureen M. Cromling Arena. The expo center will be a year-round facility, climate controlled, and boasts 67,000 sq. ft. that can be configured into a variety of floor plans. The competition size covered outdoor arena will host shows and serve as a staging area for livestock events. Stay tuned for more information. We are still on schedule with a tentative completion date of August, 2025!
