A couple of weeks ago, the Thomas County Amusement Association officially wrapped up our 24th year of operation.
Twenty-four years of rides, games, late nights, breakdowns, repairs, laughter, volunteers, families, and memories at the Thomas County Fair.
And now, Year 25 is next.

If we accidentally missed your name, your family, your organization, or your business, we deeply apologize. Please know that your help has not gone unnoticed.
This carnival simply does not happen without people willing to give their time, equipment, resources, knowledge, money, and sometimes a whole lot of sweat to keep it going.
Every volunteer matters. Every sponsor matters. Every person who shows up when we need a hand matters.
Thank you.
As we head into Year 25, we have some great things ahead, and we cannot wait to continue building something our community can enjoy and be proud of.
24 DOWN.
YEAR 25 IS NEXT.
AND THERE'S PLENTY MORE TO GO.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for another incredible year.
