Q: "Are you an actual club that is putting on the show ?" A: No, we are not a club. The Jordan Fall Festival was started in 1947 as a local fundraiser. The Festival raised enough funds to build a local public swimming pool in 1949. Located just outside the village the pool still receives funding from the Festival. No single individual makes a dime from the Festival in general, (except the artists, crafters and vendors in the tents. They pay rent for their spaces. |

Q: "I don't like the answer you gave me. Who's your boss? To whom can I appeal?" A: There is no "boss" and there are no appeals. The buck stops right here. The Jordan Fall Festival Committee fronts most of the money to buy prizes and trophies (not so much anymore, thanks to our awesome sponsors) and then we bring home the bacon that comes from you folks at the end of the day Sunday. We fully support the selection committees decisions, and their decision is final. They are volunteers doing this out of the goodness of their hearts. |
