🏕️ Fair camping update!

Camping spaces for the 2026 Southwest Washington Fair are nearly full, and our team has officially started working through campground confirmations and outreach.

If you are currently on the camping list and no longer need your space, please let us know as soon as possible so we can continue working through the waitlist and help accommodate as many fair campers as possible.

We appreciate everyone’s patience as we work through another very busy camping season at the Fairgrounds!

🎡 Just 85 days until Fair!

💐 Happy Birthday, Violet! 🎉

Today we’re celebrating one of the sweetest, most hardworking members of our Fair team!

Violet keeps so many moving pieces running smoothly. From coordinating our garage sales to leading the charge on Washington State Garlic Fest and supporting countless events in between.

Her kindness, attention to detail, and calm presence make a huge difference around here (and we’re pretty lucky to have her!).

Join us in wishing her a very happy birthday and a year full of continued success, good health, and maybe just a little time to slow down and celebrate herself. 🎂✨

Happy Birthday, Violet! 🎈
