IT'S FISHER FAIR TIME!! July 9th - 13th

2013 is the 72nd Annual Community Fair!  Please come and join in all the fun at the best little fair in Champaign County, IL!  We welcome you and your family to our fairgrounds and be our guest!  You'll find something for everyone at any age!  Swyear Amusements will be on hand to satisfy that craving for the carnival atmosphere.  Believe us, they are the best in the business! 

 

Our Queen Pageant will be held for the 2nd year since 1941.  The 2012 winner was Miss Taylor Franzen from Gifford.  She has been such an ambassador for the Fisher Fair this past year!  She and her family have been representing the Fisher Fair with such style and grace!  You may see additional information about her on our Queen Pageant tab.

 

Be sure to check out our schedule of events tab, also!  We'd love to have you as our guest all week long!  Stop on in and say hi!  Tell us what you think of the fairgrounds and our wonderful community that supports us!  Thank you for stopping in and havin' a little fun with us!

 

We hope to see you at the Fisher Fair!!

 

Have a great summer of fun!

Jill Hardesty, President

 

 

In 2013, "Give Back" day will be held on Thursday, July 11th.  All admission prices will be $2.00 for Adults and Children.  Please bring canned goods to the admission gates to donate to the Fisher Food Pantry.  We helped so many families last year and stocked the Fisher Food Pantry.  Our International affiliate, the International Association of Fairs and Expositions (IAFE) is sponsoring a world-wide effort to feed the hungry and it starts in our own backyard!  The project is called:  DREAM BIG!! 

 

  • Once the food is collected, we'll weigh it and report the poundage donated to the IAFE.   We have an international goal of 20,000,000 pounds of food!  We'll be providing updates throughout 2013 on the progress of that goal. 

 

We'll be part of something really BIG to help feed the hungry in our town and help the Fisher Food Pantry to never have to turn people away who are hungry!  We can help change the WORLD!  Please join us in the effort!
