With our 165+ years of rich history, our volunteers who strive to make the Big Butler Fair possible enjoy seeing the smiling faces of fairgoers each summer and watching the event grow each year. They not only view the Fair as an event, but as a piece of American history!
The Big Butler Fair is a culmination of the efforts of so many caring individuals, and it takes a lot of work and dedication. We are always looking for volunteers—from ticketing assistance to concessions management—to keep this outstanding tradition of the Fair thriving in our community.
If you are interested in volunteering to help continue the traditions of the Big Butler Fair, please call us at 724-865-2400.
We’ll see you at the Fair!
