Annual Report

Just as fairs are all about curiosity (Just how tall is a Clydesdale?), so is CFSA. Instead of very large horses, blood-curdling rides, home-baked pies and hypnotists, our questions, however, are directed toward our quest for knowledge and how and what we can do to better serve our member fairs.

The annual report is available in print and online. For a print copy, contact Melissa Thurber; to read it online simply make sure you have Adobe Reader on your computer and you're set. (If you don't have it, download it for free from the Adobe Web site.)

"Above and Beyond," CFSA's 2007 annual report, as well as previous year reports are also available on our Web site.

Note: You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to read the online reports. If you don't already have it on your computer, you can quickly download it for free from the Adobe Web site.

Now if you think all annual reports are boring and impossible to understand, you haven't read ours. We know you're busy, no time to waste, and our reports are organized and written accordingly. Our goal? To provide our members with reports that, 1) articulately summarize the report year's accomplishments and challenges, 2) present CFSA's financial standings in a way everyone will find meaningful, and 3) have lots of colorful photos of California fairgoers enjoying themselves at, where else? The fair!
