VOLUNTEERS ARE ALREADY HELPING PREPARE
THE FAIR FLOWER HOUSE
Ladies are shown working on the Center of Interest covering the
niche with brown paper to make a log cabin room scene. This
year the theme will depict "Memories" as we celebrate "100 Years of Fair Family Fun". Posey has
also been selected as the 2011 Fair Honoree this year of the Washington Parish
Association. Posey states, "Volunteers are the heart-beat and back bone of the
Fair and without them we could not have the successes we have enjoyed over the
many years."
