A large hand-painted map was posted on a stand in a clearing. It contained a "Legendary" legend. If the map could be followed, the location of "Toilets" and "Stages" could be found.

In previous years it was always difficult to find the fair's exit. This "Exit This Way" sign pointed the way, but it too was confusing. It took longer to exit the fair than was reasonable.

A "O.C.F. Vote G.O.T.V. Get Out The Vote" sign was posted high on a fence bordering the fair. On the sign, the "O.C.F." stood for Oregon Country Fair.
