The Washington County Agricultural Society is looking for a new fair manager and treasurer following last week’s resignation of Washington County Fair Manager and Treasurer Dorie Ostertag.
Ostertag, of Afton, celebrated her 31st year as fair manager this summer. She declined to comment Tuesday on her resignation, which occurred on Oct. 21 at the annual meeting of the Washington County Agricultural Society in Baytown Township.
President Phyllis Wirth said Agricultural Society officials are in the process of posting the position. “Hopefully, we will be interviewing soon,” she said.
Ostertag’s resignation is “a loss in part because of the experience that goes with it,” said John Rheinberger, a longtime Agricultural Society board member whose term ended Tuesday. “She will be hard to replace.”
