They're elected. Once a year (usually in Nov.) they're voted on by Fair Association members. I'm not exactly sure how the candidates are nominated, though. So you just go to the meeting, look at the list and pick people that you think are in it for the right reasons (i.e. reputable people you've heard of in the ag or business communities). The guy that had been president for a while (Dave Hartmann) I have known since I was a kid. The current one (Jennifer Cook) I don't know at all. Anybody can join and become a member, as long as they can prove they live in Vigo County and pay the membership fee.
