Next up, we'd like to thank the Kemp Family and Kemp & Sons Farms for being one of our longstanding Diamond Sponsors!
The Kemp Family has been a valued supporter of the Richwood Independent Fair for many years. When our sponsorship program was revamped in 2012 to include structured sponsorship packages and pricing levels, Mark was one of the very first supporters to step up and secure a Diamond Sponsorship.
Since then, Kemp & Sons Farms has remained a consistent partner of the fair. Year after year, they are among the first sponsors to return their sponsorship commitment, demonstrating their dedication to the success of our fair and the community it serves.
Their continued support helps us provide quality events, maintain our fairgrounds, and create opportunities for the youth and families who participate in the Richwood Independent Fair each year.
We are incredibly grateful for the loyalty and generosity of the Kemp Family and Kemp & Sons Farms. Thank you for your many years of support and for helping make the Richwood Independent Fair possible! 💎🌾🎡 ... See MoreSee Less
