“The Pavilion looks like a completely different building with all of the changes that have been

made. I remember competing in roller skating events in there as a kid. Now I just want to go in there and dance

and have a good time! It’s great to see all the improvements out at

Bolado.”– Mitch Bourdet

“As a local business owner it’s great to see so many positive changes to the county’s largest

event center. We joined the Heritage Foundation last year after hearing about it from a few friends. We’re

amazed by all of the improvements we have seen in such a short time.”

-Tim Chiala

Reception!

“My family and I just had a wonderful time this year at the fair. I am amazed at how tight

knit the community is in trying to better Bolado Park through the Heritage Foundation. We

look forward to doing our part to keep this tradition going.”

– Ross Kashawagi

“Joining the Heritage Foundation has worked out great for our family. Not only do we benefit from all of the work

that has been done, we also get to spend time getting to know

other members between bunny shows. It has been well worth

the money.” – Mark Lema
