The Coconino County Fair is our Club's biggest event of the year, and it requires the full effort of nearly all club members to make it work effectively. The first priority is to keep our trains running for four days straight during the Labor Day weekend. We estimate that between 3,000 and 4,000 people visit our Mountain Pacific Lines layout each year. Our third annual "hospitality tent" placed at our building's exit was also a huge success, giving visitors the opportunity to explore the hobby of model railroading in more detail. Our raffle was also a smashing success, and three lucky people won pairs of tickets to either the Grand Canyon Railroad or the Verde Canyon Railway.
