The Elders Committee meets monthly to vet Elder applications, plan projects, get updates on existing projects, and schedule Elder events. The committee places special emphasis holding thoughtful discussions on current Fair and Elder issues.

To get more information about Elder committee meetings, volunteer opportunities, how to apply to become an Elder, Elder events, newsletter, Fair attendance, Elder history, and much more, please visit the Oregon Country Fair Elders Website at www.ocfelders.weebly.com*.

The deadline to Submit Elder Applications for the 2024 Fair is February 1, 2024. Applications received after that date will be considered for the 2025 Fair. Currently, a member with at least 20 years of verifiable volunteer service to the Fair and at least 55 years of age before the first day of the 2024 Fair is eligible to apply. Keep in mind that the minimum age to apply goes up next year to 56, so anyone who will be 55 by the beginning of the 2024 Fair will subsequently be eligible to apply for the 2025 Fair.
