Since we have a limited number of sponsorships available, we’d like to be able to provide those businesses with the opportunity to help while providing the fairgoers with good family-oriented free entertainment. The money generated from the Friends of the Fair program will be used to provide quality displays and programs during fair week that are available to the public at no charge. These programs may include educational programs, magic shows, exotic animal exhibits or petting zoos.
