Drop a 🩷 if cotton candy is a non-negotiable at every fair you visit.

Hello everyone!
We just want to give you a quick update… Excavation has started at the fairgrounds and the lot next to it, removing the arsenic that had been underground for many years. Please refrain from the south and west end of the fairgrounds while this project is ongoing.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding while this process is happening. 😊
