The 7th Annual San Elijo Elementary School Country Fair is Saturday, April 26th from 10 am – 4pm.
Just when you thought the Country Fair couldn’t get any better.. SEES is back with even bigger and better food, games, and attractions!
This year they have over 30 games, hand led pony rides, petting zoo, dozens of arts & crafts, and rides to satisfy the most daring of daredevils. You can take a spin inside one of the giant Land Zorb balls (human hamster balls) for an experience you won’t soon forget! Leave room in your day to have a bite to eat… with over 10 food vendors to choose from: it may take a while to decide. Hit the main stage for local San Marcos artists to perform and grade level performances. Rock the campus and come sing a solo, or with your kiddos at the Karaoke stage. Have a caricature drawn or stop by the photo booth to have something to remember the day by…it will be one for the memory books.
The Country Fair is open to the public and admission is free. Tickets can be purchased to buy food and participate in the attractions. This is a SEES PTO sponsored event.
