The Marion County Children’s Business Fair

07/18/2026

It’s been one week since this year’s business fair… we still can’t get over all of the amazing kid businesses that came out to showcase their talents, all of our sponsors who helped make the event a success and supported the children in their endeavors, and for our visitors who came to shop! Thank you so much to each and every person who had a hand in participating or simply sharing the event with the community. We couldn’t have done it without you!
If you participated or attended this event and loved your experience, would you please take a few moments to leave us a review on our page? This is a new page we created this year and it would be helpful to have your feedback as we prepare for next year’s children’s business fair. Thank you so much again for all of your support. 🌟

A little more about their business:

Legacy Surface Prep specializes in professional surface preparation for commercial, industrial, and residential projects throughout Florida. We remove rust, paint, coatings, and contaminants using professional abrasive blasting methods to properly prepare surfaces before refinishing. From metal railings, generators, and heavy equipment to concrete, masonry, brick, wood, and fire restoration, we help ensure every coating system starts with proper surface preparation—because proper surface preparation determines everything that happens next.
