Wayne County Fair Advisory Committee

The Wayne County Fair Advisory Committee is comprised of numerous volunteers from across Wayne County. Any one who is interested in helping to organize the fair, to make it bigger and better, can be a member of the Advisory Committee. These dedicated volunteers give their time to be Fair department superintendents, or they simply volunteer to do many of the various activities necessary to support the annual Wayne County Fair.

Without volunteers, the Wayne County Fair would not be the successful fair that it is!

The Fair Advisory Committee meets the 4th Wednesday of every month at the
Palmyra Community Center, 240 Stafford St., Palmyra, NY at 7 pm.
Please feel free to call any of the advisers below for more information.
