2011 Calaveras County State Fair Funding in Place
Angels Camp, CA....The Calaveras County Fair & Jumping Frog Jubilee board and staff are busy planning the 2011 Calaveras County Fair & Jumping Frog Jubilee, May 19-22, “Pirates of the Carrots & Beans”. The Fair has received its 2011 allocation from the State of California. However, Governor Jerry Brown is currently exploring the possibility of cutting future fair funding.....
The State allocation represents approximately 18% of the Association’s annual budget. The balance, the Association earns from proceeds at the annual Fair and facility Rentals. The Board of Directors is currently exploring alternative funding solutions. It is the on-going goal of the Board that the Fair become self-sustainable and not dependent on the State. With the efforts of the Board, Staff and “Friends of the Calaveras County Fair”, the Association has been moving in that direction over the last five years.
The 2011 Calaveras County Fair will feature amazing entertainment, food, exhibits and much more. Be sure to check our website, blog and Facebook page for updates.
