Blue Ribbon Scholarship Program

The Washington State Fair Foundation is pleased to present over $111,000 in scholarship opportunities to students residing in Washington State this year.

The Blue Ribbon Scholarship Program is made possible by the generosity of the Foundation's donors. Since the inception of the program, over $1,200,000 in awards have been distributed to students. In addition to the endowed scholarships set up by donor families, the program is primarily supported by an annual auction. The 21st annual Round Up Auction is scheduled for Friday, August 2, 2019. Please contact the Foundation office at 253-841-5120 for more information about joining us at the event and/or supporting the effort with the donation of an auction item.

Traveling Farm

Thanks to the generous support of our community, we've packaged the magic of the Fair Farm to deliver a hands-on field trip experience that comes to the school!
Not long ago children might have been exposed to farming and agriculture through a field trip to a farm or the Fair, but most schools no longer have the resources to send children on such enriching experiences.  The Traveling Farm answers these challenges with its custom built, 48 foot tractor-trailer which houses 14 interactive learning stations and visits schools throughout the Puget Sound at no cost to students, schools or districts.
