Friends in high places

I was recently working on the letters the Fair Board sends to our townships each year asking them for financial support for our fair and it got me thinking.


I know there are tons of people out there who love the Pope County Fair.  Our group on Facebook had over 100 members in just 10 days. (Haven't checked it out yet? You should.) How many of our fair friends have mentioned their love of this annual event to their public officials?

Next time you see one of your township officers, county commissioners or any other public official, let them know what the fair means to you.  Share a story of your experiences at the fair, and be sure to thank them for their past support.  It never hurts to have friends in high places!
