Each year, the Evergreen State Fair celebrates the tradition of agriculture, handmade goods, homegrown delights and families spending time together. This year, however, they also celebrated with Luis Sanchez (and family) who was the 348,631st person to walk through the gate, breaking the all-time attendance record for the Evergreen State Fair, previously set in 2014.
During the morning Fair Safety meeting on September 4, staff began going over attendance and the numbers looked promising enough to start planning for record-breaking attendance. Many vendors pitched in fun gifts including fudge from Seattle Fudge, kettle korn from Pioneer Popcorn, a purple cow gift certificate from Snohomish County Dairy Women, a t-shirt and cinnamon rolls from Snohomish Pie Company, custom soda bottles from Jones Soda, ride tickets from Butler Amusements and two dozen scones from Fisher Scones.
Sanchez said his family was deciding whether to go to the beach or the Fair to celebrate Labor Day so he let his 10 year old daughter, decide because it was almost her birthday. “I think I chose the right answer,” she said. Grasping his balloon bouquet, Sanchez’s son exclaimed, “Papi, this is the luckiest day of my life!”
“The success of our Fair is not based off of numbers because truly it’s so much bigger than that, however as the County’s largest family friendly event, we never want to turn down the chance to celebrate and make someone’s day,” Brielle Dodge, Marketing Specialist.
Next year, the 110th Evergreen State Fair is scheduled for August 23 through September 3 and the Fair theme is “Summer Days and Country Ways”.
