Participation prices for each partner level:

VOLUNTEER AND GO FOR FREE!
Each year the Forest Trail is represented personally by the organization’s director for five days and throughout the three weeks of the fair in the form of brochures and giveaways. This year, our director, Mary Turner, will be on maternity leave throughout the fair and the Forest Trail is in great need of regional representation. Therefore, any partners willing to personally work/volunteer for two (2) or more four-hour shifts at the fair may send their community or organization brochures for FREE. You also get admission to the fair and free parking on the day of your shift(s)!
BOOTH SPECIFICS/REQUIREMENTS
The Texas Heritage Trails Program has a 20 x 20 booth in Texas Department of Agriculture's Food and Fiber Pavilion for all ten heritage regions to share. The primary goal of the booth is not to promote your own community or even just the Forest Trail, but travel in Texas and meaningful, authentic experiences here.
TO PARTICIPATE OR VOLUNTEER
Please contact our office no later than Friday, July 30 to reserve your preferred date and shift(s). At that time, I will send all volunteers lodging suggestions, parking directions and information, information about eating at the fair, and other general tips.
