Hear From Our Volunteers
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“As a music lover I was originally drawn to the fair when a longtime director and friend invited me to help out with music acts at the main stage. Three years in and I am an active member of the board and have come to appreciate all the efforts of the special folks that work diligently all year long with a common goal. To bring happiness, fun and smiles to the kids and families for 9 days in August. The fact that we have a dedicated time for kids with special needs is the icing on the cake for me. Hope y’all enjoy the changes we’ve made for our 50th anniversary celebration”
