Mark your calendars now for the New Madison Community and Tri-Village School Fair. This annual event that is being held the first weekend in October; Friday, October 5 and Saturday, October 6. Traditional events such as the crowning of the king and queen, the Cutest Patriot Contest, the school dance, and Little Mr. & Miss Patriot Contest will be a part of the festivities. Craft booths, lawn games, the parade, and the produce contests are other activities always eagerly anticipated by fair goers. The mini tractor pull, pinewood derby race, and a performance by the high school band and drill team provide entertainment on Saturday. Newer activities including the Treasure Hunt and an expanded Bake Contest will be on the agenda also. In keeping with this year's theme "Supporting Our Community Through the Generations" some "yesteryear" events such as a greased pig contest have been added. Games such as Bunco and bingo appear on the schedule as well as the Annual School Fair Auction that has become one of the many highlights of the weekend. Delicious food available from Cedar Grove church and the Saturday “Minute To Win It” Program finish a packed full of fun weekend.
The School Fair Committee is always interested in new members. We are looking for enthusiastic members of the community or alumni who are willing to assist in current events or possibly bringing a new event to the weekend. If you are interested, please feel free to join us at our next meeting on Monday, August 27 at 6:00 p.m. in the School’s Conference Room or contact Lauren Armstrong at 937-459-0563 or laurena4590563@yahoo.com
