“This will be my third convention,” said Williams, “and I am looking forward to sharing and exchanging practices and ideas with others involved in fair and expo planning. The Washington County Fair has seen record attendance for the past several years, primarily because it is a great value for family entertainment. We have had good weather, support from fair partners and I get to work with a creative group of people that comprise the advertising committee.”<\/p>\n
