Exhibitor Fair Books are available in the “usual” locations and Municipal offices throughout the area.

ALL the same information is available on this website including the exhibitor entry form.  Entries can be made online also.

The current concrete gate pillars, wrought iron fencing and stone pylon located at the entrance of the Town Agricultural Park are dated and are deteriorating. Becoming a safety issue, the gate pillars need to be replaced to permit safe access to the Town Park and to the Agricultural Fair.

If you are interested in donating to the project please review the entire project story on the Municipal website at Raise The Gates – Town Park Gate Project

Here is the press release of the Project.

PORT HOPE – The Port Hope Fair board is looking for volunteers, not just for the fall fair itself.

“We are looking for volunteers to enjoy and support a variety of events during the year,” Fair Past President Connie Martinell stated in a media release.

“Opportunities include volunteers to help during the fair on the gates, with the animal shows, and with the exhibits.

“There are many jobs to suit a variety of interests and how much time you can contribute.”

In addition to the September fair weekend, she said, “there are opportunities during the year,” she said.

“We enter a float in the Canada Day and Christmas parades, and we welcome fun-loving volunteers to help decorate and ride along.” (In 2017 & 2018 there was be a demo derby to help celebrate Canada Day.)

Working as a volunteer is also a way for students to accumulate the volunteer hours they need.

“The Society’s purpose is to encourage awareness of agriculture and to promote improvements in the quality of life of people living in the agricultural community. The fair promotes conservation of natural resources and supports activities that enrich the rural lifestyle. It is also a great deal of fun!”

Hundreds of volunteers are needed.

Calling all singers, dancers, magicians, actors, actresses, jugglers, story tellers and instrumentalists!
