Engler told Hertel then that the state would only subsidize the fair for five more years. Last year marked the final year of taxpayer help. To prepare for the loss of state money, the fair entered into more corporate sponsorships and ventures. The Motor Sports Hall of Fame Museum agreed to a 30-year lease for its exhibition. A partnership with Greenfield Village allows for cross promotions.
People attending the village get discount tickets for the fair and vice-versa.
