Over
1,000 people are expected to visit the fair, a community tradition for 85 years
offering games, booths, food, entertainment, crafts and rides – all of which
gets underway on Friday and continues on Saturday evening. The Fairdale Community
Club will host the Homemakers Contest, and The Fairdale Lions Club will provide
fish and pulled pork meals, along with food trucks available for other choices. District 13 will provide a Local Government
informational booth.
“I
would like to express my appreciation to LMPD Division 3 and the Jefferson Co
Sheriff’s Office for their security services throughout the fair. Also, the Jefferson Co Attorney’s Office DUI
Diversion Program is very helpful for cleanup efforts after the fair. Of
course, it goes without saying how much
work is done by the members of the Fairdale Fair Board, Inc. to keep this
festival going all these years. A hearty THANK
YOU to all involved!”
