The St. Ann's Family Fair is run solely by volunteers and 100% of the proceeds go to St. Ann’s School.  Each year, there are over 100 volunteers that give countless hours to make this great event a success.  These volunteers become a “fair family” and have wonderful memories that last them a lifetime.
