The Bridge Lake Fair is producing a new entry booklet this year and hopes to receive “recovery funds” to pay for it.

Hence, all previous ads will be included at no charge. Due to business closures, there is a little space available, which will be charged at the usual minimal rates. Anyone wishing to be included should call this writer as soon as possible.
