Bill > HR128

This resolution commends the Highland County Fair on its 75th anniversary, recognizing its long history of entertaining and educating visitors, honoring agricultural traditions, and fostering community in western Virginia. The fair originated from a White Elephant Sale in 1951 and has since grown into a weeklong event featuring carnival rides, live entertainment, fireworks, contests, and agricultural showcases, supported by various civic organizations like the Ruritan Clubs and the Lions Club, and a dedicated fair association. The resolution acknowledges the fair's role in supporting the local economy by providing a venue for agricultural producers and vendors, and it praises the vision and dedication of the fair association's leaders and volunteers for creating memorable experiences that exemplify the spirit of Highland County. The Clerk of the House of Delegates is directed to prepare a copy of this resolution for the Highland County Fair Association to express the House of Delegates' admiration for the fair's cultural significance.
