The Franklin County Visitors Bureau (FCVB) celebrates the newest recipient of the Community Impact Award, the Franklin County Fair during the St. Patrick’s Day Spotlight on Tourism Brunch.

Hosted at the Franklin County 11/30 Visitors Center, the brunch brought tourism partners, local businesses, organizations, and community members together to network, review tourism efforts, look to the future, and celebrate those who have made a positive impact in our community, including the Franklin County Fair.

FCVB acknowledged the Franklin County Fair‘s ability to make things happen and expresses deep appreciation for the Fair’s ability to “inspire generations to cherish the traditions of farming, the strength of family, the community spirit that celebrates Franklin County’s agricultural heritage, and the profound importance of farmland.”

For over 60 years the Franklin County Fair has promoted agriculture’s importance, helping the public see that agriculture touches their lives every single day. The fair provides opportunities to learn about farming and agriculture related industries while enjoying quality time in a community centered and welcoming environment. The Franklin County Fair will be held July 5th – 11th, for more information on how to get involved and a full list of events visit franklincountyfair.org
