Oley Valley Community Fair ASSOCIATION P. O. Box 55 Oley, PA 19547 73 rd President’s Message… ANNIVERSARY Dear Fair Friends: I am writing this message to you with lots of personal excitement around the upcoming 73rd annual Oley Valley Community Fair. Why am I so excited? Well, over the past year there have been so many people working very hard to bring you some brand new things to this year’s fair. One of the most exciting new ventures will be the grand unveiling of an official mascot of the Oley Valley Community Fair. Our committee put lots of thought into just what type of mascot would fit well with our agricultural experience at the fair. It will be something that will represent us as a fair and be another icon of our great event held every year in September. So, just what will that mascot be? What might it look like? I invite all of you to the Opening Ceremony on Thursday at noon to be the first to see our new mascot. What’s that? It needs a name? Well, of course it does and here is the next exciting part, you just may be the lucky person to name our mascot. Please see the entry form and rules inside this book. But wait, the excitement doesn’t just end with the new mascot. Upon arrival at the fair, you will notice a brand new pavilion that was built for additional seating for all of you to sit down and enjoy those famous fair French Fries or whatever your favorite fair food is. Do I have your attention yet? Well, the excitement still does not stop there. This year we are introducing a brand new contest. The Recycled Junk Art Contest, I cannot wait to see how you use your imagination with this contest. Once again, please see the rules and entry guidelines within this book. So, can you see why I am so excited for this year’s Oley Valley Community Fair? I cannot thank all our volunteers enough for what they do. Our volunteers strive to bring the best fair and experience possible for you and your family to enjoy. Another group of individuals that we need to thank are all our sponsors. Without you, these new ventures that were mentioned above would not be possible. A special mention goes out to our premier Blue, Red and Yellow Ribbon Sponsors. Thank you to our Blue Ribbon Sponsors which include BB&T Bank, Reading Eagle Company and Brook Ledge / Gotwals / Expressway. Our Red Ribbon Sponsors include Mast Roofing, Gary Weller Painting and Little’s. The Yellow Ribbon Sponsors include Deka, Weis Markets and the PA Lottery. Once again, thank you for being our premier sponsors. I certainly hope that you will agree that there are many reasons to come to the fair this year. Aside from all the good food, the fun, the family entertainment and just plain old catching up with friends, you will have so much to see and do at the 73rd annual Oley Valley Community Fair. I cannot wait to see you (and the mascot) and join me in celebrating our theme of “Sweet Treats, Good Eats, Only at the Oley Fair”. See you at the fair !!!!! * Dr. Bernard Zackon, Past Pres. / 1946-1950 Sincerely, * Clifford Chafey, Past Pres. / 1951-1956 * Raymond Levan, Past Pres. / 1957-1959 Kevin D. Bieber * Warren B.
