Tell us about your fair experience, any OCF or other committee work you are involved in, and your work experience. Depending on the projects, you should be prepared to attend (virtually, in person or by hybrid meetings) one meeting per month (with occasional additional meetings), be available for researching and drafting policies when needed. This is a good way to become involved in the fair.
