Milford Lake was a big attraction for visitors to the Geary County Convention and Visitors booths at the recent State Fair. Donna Price, CVB Director, noted that there was a lot of curiosity about the lake. "About cabins, about Acorns ( Resort ) and the other areas that you can stay in. " Horse and biking trails were also areas of interest.

Fishing at the reservoir was a big draw. "In fact we have some postcards and one of them is of a lady that had caught an 82-pound blue catfish. We ran out of those postcards this year because they were so popular, "said Price.

There were volunteers and CVB staff that manned the booths in the Pride of Kansas building. 

Many people enjoyed the Visitors Guide during the fair. Other areas that were promoted ranged from hunting to the waterfall at the Geary State Lake about eight miles south of Junction City.
