This year we were able to present $28,450 in scholarships to the youth of Fayette County. We want to congratulate all the recipients & wish them the best of luck in the future. We wouldn't be able to do this without the help & support from the communities in the county.

Youth and education are the primary objectives of the Fayette County Fair Association. In 2024 the Fair Association will again award 20 scholarships to seniors from five Fayette County High Schools which include Fayetteville, Flatonia, La Grange, Round Top-Carmine and Schulenburg as well as those home schooled. These scholarships are in the amount of $1000 each.

Criteria for the scholarship include excellent academic profile, leadership skills, special events, community involvement, work experience and/or participation or involvement in the Fayette County Fair. These scholarships will be accepted at any accredited University/College or Vocational School.

Scholarship applications may be obtained by contacting counselors at the schools or on the Fair Web Site.

The presentation of these scholarships allows the Fair Association to assist graduates in fulfilling their desire to continue their education.
