🌟 July Member Highlight: Ramona Junior Fair 🌟
This month, the Ramona Chamber of Commerce is proud to spotlight the Ramona Junior Fair—an outstanding community event dedicated to supporting and showcasing the achievements of local youth. With
a mission centered on advancing young people through agriculture, industrial education, and recreational activities, the Fair has long been a cherished tradition in our town.
What makes the Ramona Junior Fair truly special is that it is 100% volunteer-run. Dedicated leaders from our community, along with local 4-H, FFA, and Grange Clubs, work tirelessly year-round to bring this fair to
life. Their commitment provides invaluable learning experiences and a platform for youth to grow, compete, and celebrate their hard work.
Mark your calendars for the 2025 Ramona Junior Fair, taking place from Saturday, July 26th through Friday, August 2nd. Join us in supporting the next generation of Ramona leaders and innovators!
