Thank you for your interest in sponsoring the Southeastern Youth Fair!
Where did you first learn to “finish what you start” and that “a job worth doing, is worth doing well?” The Southeastern Youth Fair has been teaching these lessons to Marion County youth for the past 80 years! We would love to have you join the select few in our Corporate Sponsorship Program.
The Southeastern Youth Fair is a not-for-profit ALL YOUTH Fair held in February of each year. Responsibility, marketing, communication, and record keeping are just a few of the life skills acquired by the over 1,100 exhibitors of the Fair. Your sponsorship helps shape these “Blue Ribbon Youth,” many of whom return to Ocala/Marion County after college to become future business leaders, putting their skills to work in our community. Your contribution will be used in funding college scholarships, sponsoring shows and events, and creating a state-of-the-art educational experience for our youth.
Don’t miss out on making this lasting impact on over 1,100 youth participants and its 25,000 attendees! Please consider a Corporate Sponsorship and take the opportunity to shape our community’s future. Complete the online information as soon as possible. If you need additional information, call us at 352-629-1255.
OTHER INFORMATION

- Barn will close 1/2 hour prior to shows and sales and will only be open to those with armbands.
- Rubber armbands will be provided to leaders so they can use them all week.
- **LEADERS – Please help the barn committee by making yourself easily identifiable as a leader (i.e., nametag, shirt, etc). Your armband will help during shows obviously, but any clarity on who is leadership will help the committee know who to reach out to when necessary.
