Sponsorship Opportunities - McHenry County Fair Association
April 2015
Dear McHenry County Community Member,
The McHenry County Fair Association is actively seeking members of our community willing to help
support the events, activities and infrastructure at the McHenry County Fairgrounds. This year’s fair is
August 5th thru August 9th with the theme of “Homemade, Home grown”. We are very excited to offer
some new events and welcome back events and people that help to keep the McHenry County Fair
one of the last truly agriculture partner fairs in this area.
We have been working hard to bring awareness to all that we have to offer at the fairgrounds during
fair and throughout the year. We are proud of the educational component that we have at our events.
We feel like it is important to continue to support the agricultural part of McHenry County and help us
hang on to our “field to table” roots. Looking forward with an eye to the future we will continue to offer
family events that are relevant today.
In keeping with the traditions of past fairs and looking to the exciting opportunities for future fairs, we
are asking for your support to continue to provide fun, family events that help to make our
communities stronger.
Please look over the enclosed sponsorship possibilities. There are many ways to get involved and
support the McHenry County Fair Association and thus the McHenry County Fair. Your monetary
support is greatly appreciated. There are other ways to get involved with volunteering opportunities
or becoming a McHenry County Fair Association member. Members of the Association help guide
the future of the fairgrounds based on the wants and needs of the McHenry County community.
Please consider supporting your McHenry County Fair Association and help us keep educational, fun
events appropriate to families and the McHenry County Fair Grounds. If you have any questions or
want to get involved please contact the Fair office.
Thank you for your support.
