Mark your calendars for the Sparkleberry Country Fair community fair that will be held on Saturday, April 24, 2010 at the Clemson University Sandhill Research and Education Center in Columbia.
The theme, "Building the Future from the Past", is designed to showcase antique tractors, antique cars and much more. The Country Fair centers around agriculture-past and present, and those attending the Fair enjoy all sorts of fair events while learning about South Carolina agriculture and wildlife.
The Fair gives urban folks an opportunity to interact with farm animals, develop an appreciation of how how food is produced, and learn about the wildlife in the surrounding communities while promoting community spirit and unity. Last year over $19,000 was raised at the Country Fair to support education, all of which was donated to area schools as grants and as scholarships for students attending in-state universities.
