What's Happening At the Fair?

I want to extend a huge thank-you to Jean Beerbower, Lore Twiet and Courtney Zurick for running the Book/Garage Sale this past weekend. The leftover sale items will be donated to the Mule Wrestling team for their sale this weekend.

The Fair Board is still looking for young ladies and gentlemen to run for Fair Royalty. The program has changed format. The winner will now be chosen on the amount of money they earn. The contestants will earn 20 percent commission on all profits they earn. So if you want to earn a little spare cash this summer and have fun, give me a call at the fair office (795-3480).

The raffle grand prize has been decided on. It will be an Apple iPad Tablet. There will also be secondary prizes, so don't forget to get your tickets. They will be out soon.

I still need Superintendents for the Beef, Adult Floral, Adult Arts & Crafts, Adult Gardening departments, so if you would like to volunteer, please let me know.

We have set new vendor prices. I will be contacting last year’s vendors this week, so if you don't hear from me please call the office and leave a message.

We will be having a clean up day on July 13. Please call the office to let me know if you can help. The Wahkiakum Fair Foundation will be painting the youth building Floor, Kim Nettles and Ebby Engle will have a crew in the horse barn, Jean Beerbower will have a crew in the exotic barn and we will have a few other projects that need to be done. If you have time to help we would love to have you.

A huge thank-you to Jason, Bill and Neil for all you do at the Fairgrounds.

Next week’s office hours will be as follows: Tuesday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Wednesday, 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. The fair office will be closed Thursday and Friday for the 4th of July holiday.
