The fair will once again feature food, games, live music, craft booths, baked goods, giant cake raffle, silent auction, moon bounce and more, with many opportunities to catch up with old friends and meet new ones, and with enough hamburgers, hot dogs and ice cream on hand to feed the entire town!

Organizers of the silent auction will hold a wine-and-cheese reception on Sunday, May 24, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. for a preview and early bidding.
