“Lettuce Entertain Ewe” Virtual Fair August 18-21
||| FROM CARLENE BALCOMB-BARTOK for SAN JUAN COUNTY FAIR
The countdown to 2021 “Lettuce Entertain Ewe” the Virtual Fair begins. While staff has worked hard at having some smaller in person activities, the format for 2021 will remain virtual.
What does this mean?
There are two more weeks to the online entry process for exhibitors and exhibits. The goal for this year to beat the 600 entries from 2020. It is time for the county community to show its support for a 115-year tradition of showcasing the county’s bounty.
Vendors have an opportunity to share, sell, and inform through the virtual vendor program. With 7,500 website visits last year and over 30,000 page views this is a great form of advertisement and engagement for commerce, non-profits, fundraising and more.
Treehouse Creative has been doing an incredible job of keeping social media outlets up to date with special deadlines and tons of information as the Fair comes together.
Which leads to how do you follow the Fair? The best way to stay up to date is to follow @sjcfair and the #sjcfair2021 on Facebook, Instagram and believe it or not, Twitter. There is the Fair website as well www.sjcfair.org.
There is also the traditional word of mouth, which Fair staff have collected data for years and found to be the most used form of information sharing!
So, help spread the word of the 2021 “Lettuce Entertain Ewe” Virtual Fair August 18-21.
