BRING FOOD AND GET FREE ADMISSION TO FAIR
It’s “fair” time; let the good times roll! Are you planning to attend the Southwest Florida Fair? And, if you’re planning to attend on Monday, Feb. 27, do you know that you can get free admission? This night is designated as “Harry Chapin Food Bank Night.” All you need to do is bring in a donation of two nonperishable food items per person to obtain free entrance.
Join your friends at the fair at the Lee County Civic Center for the best in livestock, agriculture, carnival, good food, and great times. Parking is free; gates open at 5:00 p.m. The Feb. 27 night entertainment includes music by Music City Brass, The Great Shark Adventure, Youth Talent Show-Junior and Pee Wee divisions, Swine Showmanship, and the Ravyn Clark Bank.
The food collected at the fair on Feb. 27 will be donated to the Harry Chapin Food Bank for distribution at no cost to its local nonprofit agencies. Last year, 3,796 pounds of food was collected, along with $4,419, which provided an additional $26,500 in food to our community.
