TUCSON - The Pima County Fair is celebrating 100 years of fairs in Tucson - and they're looking for your memories, photos and memorabilia to share with fair-goers.
From April 14 to 24, the Pima County Fail will be holding its Centennial Celebration - 100 years of fairs in Pima County, dating back to Elysian Grove on October 25, 1911.
Organizers for the fair are asking people to share their memories, photos and fair memorabilia, to be displayed at the official Centennial Exhibit during the fair. Loaned items will be returned to their owners after the 2011 fair is over, and submitters of selected items will get two free passes to the fair and a free parking pass.
Selected written memories will be published in the Pima County Fair History book, which will be on display at the Centennial Exhibit.
Selected submitters will receive a complimentary general admission pass to the fair.
The deadline to submit memorabilia, photos and memories is March 1. Call Merilee at 762-9100 for more information, or email your written submission and include "Fair Memories" in the subject line to Office@Pimacountyfair.com as an attachment or a PDF. Please include your first and lastname, address and phone number in the general body of your email.
