| Thank You for an EPIC Weekend! We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone that supported our 2024 Weston Memorial Day Fair! The fair not only provided a wonderful opportunity for our community to come together in honor of Memorial Day, but it also played a crucial role in supporting our elementary schools. The funds raised from the fair will have a significant impact on our schools, helping to enhance educational programs, improve facilities, and provide much-needed resources for our teachers and students. We hope you all enjoyed the fun rides, delicious food, exciting games, live music, and community spirit. Your participation and support were instrumental in making the event a tremendous success. |
Thank You to Our Committees The fair was an incredible success, and it was all thanks to the tireless efforts and commitment of our Memorial Day Fair and West Fest Committees. From the initial planning stages to the final execution, their attention to detail, creativity, and teamwork ensured that the event ran smoothly and was enjoyed by all. |
