Memorial Day Weekend is here, and we hope everyone gets a chance to enjoy the sunshine, good food, and time with the people who matter most. As we kick off the unofficial start of summer, the Highland County Fair also takes a moment to remember the heroes who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice is the reason weekends like this are possible.Whether you're grilling, fishing, traveling, or just soaking in the mountain views, we wish you a safe, fun, and meaningful weekend.

Complete our interest survey for 🌻SUNFLOWER HOURS🌻 at https://forms.gle/fyJYaSsNLUHcNoWDA

The Highland County Fair is exploring the idea of offering 🌻Sunflower Hours🌻 at the Highland County Fair — a quieter, sensory‑friendly time for kids and adults with special needs to enjoy the fair before the crowds arrive.

This session would include accommodations such as no carnival music, no flashing carnival lights, fewer crowds, slower ride speeds, and special barn times to help create a more comfortable experience.

This would be a limited‑capacity, 2‑hour session held prior to our busy hours, and special needs guests would be asked to have a guardian or caregiver present.

We’d love to know if this is something that would benefit your family or someone you know. Your feedback helps us make the fair welcoming for everyone. 🌻
