It's Almost Fair Time!

The 28th annual Deltana Fair will be held July 27-28-29, 2007 at the fairgrounds on Nistler Road in Delta Junction.

It is time to organize your family or class reunions for this time so you can enjoy the fair together – meet your friends and family members, enjoy some fair food, check out the kids’ exhibits, have some more fair food, -- you get the picture...

Participation is a key word for making the Deltana Fair a fun time for everyone. So if you have been debating about volunteering your time and talents, take the bit in your teeth and run with it to your phone and call the Deltana Fair. Leave your name and phone number on the machine if no one is in the office and we’ll get back with you as soon as we can. We really appreciate you!

More sponsors are still needed to help with various events and general fair expenses. The Deltana Fair Association needs your help to make the fair happen. Both individuals and businesses are welcome to donate to their favorite fair activity. The Deltana Fair Association is a tax-exempt, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization – and we welcome your donations. Our address is PO Box 408, Delta Junction, AK 99737. Thanks!

The Delta Community Library will help you find the website or if you can’t get there – a few premium books from years gone by are available. There are some at the Calico Cow, Busy Bee Office Supply, Alaska Farmers Co-op, and the Deltana Fair Office in the AMC Building at 1420.5 Alaska Highway.

The Deltana Fair Manager is Judy Sowell; Assistant Manager is Deb Heral; Parade Manager is Kasey Peterson; Exhibit Hall Manager is Wendy Jennings. The Deltana Fair Office Phone is 895-FAIR (895-3247).

The fair theme this year is “Meetin’ & Greetin’ – Growin’ & Showin’ “ – and the logo is on the website. We’re looking forward to seeing exhibits and parade entries using the theme. Have a wonderful time getting ready for the Deltana Fair – be sure to mark your calendars for July 27-28-29 – we’ll see you there!
