The Plumas-Sierra County Fair announces that its supportive foundation — the Plumas Sierra County Fair Foundation — is presenting a wine bar at Old Town during the fair, set for July 24 through 27 at the fairgrounds in Quincy.
Organizers say the wine bar is focused mainly on fun, along with greeting members and potential members. Members and other volunteers offer a variety of wines to fairgoers and give them a comfortable place to enjoy their drink. The foundation invites everyone to stop by during the fair, have a glass or two and visit with neighbors.
Those interested in supporting the wine bar can sign up for a shift to be a wine-tender, said Fair Manager John Steffanic. More information is available from Michelle at 530-927-7299.
The PSCF Foundation is a nonprofit that supports the health and vibrancy of the Plumas-Sierra County Fair, said Steffanic. The foundation “finds its fuel with fun,” he said. In fact, a conscious decision was made when the nonprofit was formed that everything it does should have an element of fun.
Foundation members enjoy two or three social events per year that feature food, drink, games and fun. Over the past 10 years, said Steffanic, the PSCF Foundation has contributed over $350,000 to the fairgrounds in the form of equipment, maintenance, facility improvement, promotion, scholarships, volunteering and programming. The most recent purchase was new tables for the table settings competition at the fair.
