The NCW Fair began in 1889 as the Douglas County Industrial Exposition. The Big Bend Round-Up was added shortly thereafter. In the early 1900’s, it was known as the Waterville Potato Carnival. It became the Douglas County Fair in the 1920’s and the North Central Washington District Fair in the 1940’s and remained so until 2005 when the “District” was removed. Commonly, the NCW Fair is also known as the “Fair in Waterville.”
