Minnesota State Fair looking for fair stories
To become part of on-line library
St. Paul, MN- The Minnesota State Fair Foundation, in partnership with the Minnesota State Historical Society, has launched the Share Your Minnesota State Fair Story web site to collect and preserve Minnesota State Fair stories.
Stories can be creative writing, personal narratives, memories, observations or comments about State Fair experiences. Submitted material will become part of an interactive on-line library of State Fair memories. Visit www.msffoundation.org to submit a State Fair story, read other contributions and view photos.
More than two-thirds of Minnesotans have had a State Fair experience. In a recent poll, 68% of respondents declared "family tradition" to be one of the main reasons they return to the fair each year. Sharing personal stories, whether from fairs of long ago or more recently, has the potential to connect fair guests, engage families and preserve the Minnesota State Fair experience for generations to come.
