SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – Earl Warren Showgrounds will hold its first-ever community engagement forum Wednesday evening to discuss the community's vision for the future of the showgrounds.

The forum will turn into a regularly-scheduled public meeting to provide updates and answer questions, according to spokesman JJ Fukumoto.

"Earl Warren Showgrounds wants to solicit public feedback for board activities and facility improvements, while providing a venue for board members to listen to stakeholders and residents to understand key issues through the lens of the community," Fukumoto said.
