Kunes CDJR of Belvidere and Kunes GMC of Belvidere Proud to Sponsor the 2026 Boone County Fair

 

Summer in Belvidere means one thing: the Boone County Fair is almost here, and Kunes CDJR of Belvidere and Kunes GMC of Belvidere are proud to sponsor this year's event.

 

The Boone County Fair is one of the biggest traditions in our community, drawing families, farmers, and fairgoers from all over the region every year. As two dealerships rooted right here in Belvidere, sponsoring the fair is our way of giving back to the community that has supported us for years.

Visit Us on the Fairgrounds

Kunes CDJR of Belvidere and Kunes GMC of Belvidere will have a display set up on the fairgrounds throughout the fair. Stop by, take a look at what we have on hand, and pick up a complimentary giveaway while you are there. It is a great chance to put faces to our names and talk with our team in person.
