That always seemed to be a good time that attracted a lot of people from a lot of different towns. I know I always enjoyed going to it. Can anyone tell me why it went away? Perhaps this could be a political discussion   Mayor McCheese Supporter Username: Mayor_mccheese Post Number: 225 Registered: 7-2004 Posted on Monday, March 28, 2005 - 10:32 pm:        Parrot, While I know nothing of this "craft fair" I doubt its disappearance was politically motivated. You are getting paranoid.   PARROT HEAD Citizen Username: Island_jack Post Number: 73 Registered: 3-2004 Posted on Monday, March 28, 2005 - 10:58 pm:        Cheesey, I was merely hinting towards a new administration bringing the Craft Fair back to the Duck Pond for the spring activities line-up. Judging by the icon under your name, I figured you might like some of the booths that used to be there.   bets Supporter Username: Bets Post Number: 1064 Registered: 6-2001 Posted on Tuesday, March 29, 2005 - 1:25 am:        I haven't seen patchouli oil for sale at the craft show in the past few years. So there goes that theory.   deborah Citizen Username: Deborah Post Number: 7 Registered: 6-2001 Posted on Tuesday, March 29, 2005 - 6:28 am:        The Craft Fair, which most people assume was a village function, was actually a fundraiser run by the parents of South Mountain School. Unfortunately, after more than ten years the Fair ran into too much competition from larger county fairs. The enormous, year-round volunteer effort was no longer worth the diminishing returns...and the constant worry about rain outs! Sorry, lots of us miss the Craft Fair.
