E XPO<br />

<strong>The</strong> early California legislature decided that an agricultural<br />

exposition (with the help of the State Agricultural Society)<br />

would best market California’s breadbasket to the world.<br />

Today the Cal Expo and California State Fair is based out of<br />

<strong>Sacramento</strong>’s permanent fairgrounds and has an estimated<br />

economic impact of more than $250 million on the region.<br />

In 2012, Disneyland donated the trademark letters from the<br />

“California Adventure” park to be displayed outside the<br />

exposition’s main gate. Cal Expo is also home to <strong>Sacramento</strong><br />

Republic FC's home pitch, Papa Murphy's Park.<br />
