Franklin County Fair Family Fun Day will be held on Wednesday, July 20, 2022, from Noon-4:00 pm. The event is presented by the Franklin County Agricultural Society, and we would love to have you participate.

A little bit about us---Family Fun Day is sponsored by the Franklin County Agricultural Society’s Entertainment Committee. We are a 501© 3 non-profit organization, dedicated to preserving our region’s rich agricultural heritage and offering central Ohio Residents high-quality entertainment in a convenient, clean, and safe environment. In 2021, more than 52,00 people visited the fair. We are planning for an even bigger crowd this summer.

Our goal is to create a day of family fun events, ranging from demonstrations, literary events, hands on experiences, contests, scavenger hunts, make it and take it activities, and much more. We can’t have an amazing day without the support of our Ohio 4-H Clubs.

How can you help? There are four main ways you can support the Franklin County Fair Family Fun Day:

• Set up a display table in the Entertainment Tent from Noon-4:00 pm.
• Offer a Make it and Take it Craft, share some information about your organization and/or learning activity for youth fairgoers and their families. We estimate up to 500 Materials could be shared during this time.
• Your organization/club members(s) could facilitate an educational demonstration, answer questions about your organization or share a hands-on activity with participants, during a scheduled time frame. This may include topics on agricultural awareness, nutrition, woodworking, rocketry, science/STEM, and much more! The sky is the limit.
• Volunteer to help with setup/teardown of the event.
• Volunteer to help during the day with activities to make sure participants are having a great time.
  

For your participation, your name/organization’s name will appear in signage for the Family Fun Day. This includes advertisements, social media outlets, and the FCAS website.
