Summary

The Fair Board is recruiting three new members, requested superintendents and judges for the premium book and confirmed contests, T-shirts and clean-up day plans ahead of the fair.

The board said it is seeking three additional members and noted a practice of attending three meetings before recommendation to the County Commissioners; eligibility includes county residents and residents of the Naselle area. Daria reported progress on the fair premium book but said she still needs a superintendent list and schedule; she urged superintendents to suggest judges and ensure scribes are available if necessary.

Other logistics included confirmation that fair T-shirts have been verbally booked for 2026, Erin volunteering to take over fair contests, and a scheduled clean-up day on May 30. The Fair Foundation continues to support the fair but canceled a planned lasagna dinner due to a member's death. The minutes list several volunteers and groups (Women’s Club, American Legion, Grays River Grange) offering support for fair activities.

Why it matters: recruiting new board members and finalizing logistical elements (premium book, judges, contests, shirts, and cleanup) are central to staging the fair and ensuring departmental oversight and volunteer staffing.
