Greetings York State Fair Exhibitor:

This year marks the beginning of an exciting

chapter for our historic Fair. Not only have we

changed the dates to July, but we have also

changed the name to York State Fair to better

reflect the size and scope of what our Fair is like.

While we know that the change in dates will also

result in many changes in entries, we believe

that by becoming a late summer fair that we can

offer new and exciting opportunities to exhibitors

and Fair guests alike. At the time of the

publication of this Premium Book the York State

Fair is still being planned even though the world

is waging war on the COVID19 Pandemic. Our

hope is that we can still have the Fair this

summer. However, I want to assure each

exhibitor if you have paid an entry fee and the

Fair were to be canceled, your entry fee will be

fully refunded to you. Our commitment to you,

our exhibitors, is one of gratitude for your

participation and I want to thank you for taking

the time and effort to be part of the 2020 York

State Fair.

Sincerely, Bryan Blair York State Fair CEO
