Fun awaits the whole family!
Our Annual Country Fair is one of the biggest events of the year and we hope you will join us! Our first Country Fair was held over 60 years ago as a way to bring members of the community together to raise money for needy causes. In the years that have followed, this annual event has not only raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for charity, but it has also become a local tradition for family fun. An old-fashioned day in the country awaits the whole family! Taste homemade baked goods and delicious lunch treats. Browse through hand-crafted treasures and antiques for your home. Find a bargain among thousands of used books and clothing “reruns”. Check back for updates as we get closer to the date!
We need YOUR help to make this ministry a wonderful success!
