CFA Chair of the Board Laurie Giannini, President & CEO Sarah Cummings, and team member Jordan Solario joined the team from Kahn, Soares & Conway (KSC) to visit 12 legislative offices in support of California fairs and fairgrounds for our annual CFA Lobby Day.

Throughout the day, the group advocated for the important role fairs play in supporting local communities, agriculture, youth development, emergency response, and regional economies — while also highlighting support for AB 1711, authored by Assemblymember Damon Connolly and AB 2588 by Assemblymember Heather Hadwick. The team also celebrated the passage of the Senate Concurrent Resolution 173, by Senator Marie Alvarado-Gil, designating May as Fairgrounds Appreciation Month. 

Thank you to all of our fair leaders, advocates, and legislative partners who continue working together to strengthen and support California’s network of fairs and fairgrounds. Together, we are continuing to tell the story of why fairs matter across California.

The Calaveras County Fair had the pleasure of hosting a Junior Fair Board meet-and-greet luncheon today! 🐸✨

Western Fairs Association President Robin Hauck spent time with the students, sharing her knowledge and passion for the fair industry while inspiring the next generation of fair leaders. From learning about the impact fairs have on our communities to exploring future opportunities in the industry, it was an unforgettable experience for our Junior Fair Board members.

A special thank you to Calaveras County Fair Director Kathy Campbell for her support and for helping make this opportunity possible! 💚🎡

Thank you to Robin Hauck for taking the time to invest in our youth and the future of fairs!

What does the California Fairs Alliance do? 🤔

The California Fairs Alliance (CFA) is dedicated to fostering collaboration and synergy among California fairs and their affiliated organizations through strategic planning and shared goals.

We advocate for legislation that supports the growth and success of fairs while working to increase funding through legislative efforts, grants, and partnerships. CFA also raises public awareness about the vital role fairs play in communities across the state.

Through the exchange of best practices and resources, we help fairs strengthen operations, while promoting education and professional development to support long-term success. We also encourage innovation and sustainability to ensure the fair industry continues to thrive for generations to come. 🎡🌾
