10X – THANK YOU Sponsors!

Ten-times the return for all of Western Montana – for every $1 contributed in sponsorship, nearly $10 is redistributed back into our local community. The success of Free Admission and the Fair’s other sponsored events is fundamental to the prosperity of the region’s nonprofit organizations who depend on fairgoers to meet their annual fundraising budget. Please share your gratitude with these wonderful community minded sponsors!
