School Groups
Thank you for joining us for the 2023 Common Ground Country Fair!
School groups that attended the Fair this year may submit mileage for reimbursement. Please fill out this Google form. Checks will be send throughout the months of October and November 2023. Please email Anna Libby at [email protected] with any questions.
Pre-registration is closed, but school groups can register in person at the school gate on Friday morning.
The following guidelines apply to all people attending the Fair in any capacity.
- The CGCF does not permit pets on the fairgrounds or in the Fair parking areas.
- No smoking on the fairgrounds, except for the designated smoking area across from the Fair Office.
- Fair participants may not build fires without written permission from the CGCF office.
- The CGCF strictly enforces Maine laws prohibiting public drinking of alcohol and use of illegal drugs on the fairgrounds and in the Fair parking lots.
- Unauthorized possession of firearms, weapons or explosives is not allowed on the Fairgrounds.
- The CGCF prohibits from the fairgrounds audio and video devices audible to the general public unless they are part of a CGCF-approved demonstration.
- Fair participants may not feed livestock or other display animals unless they are tending their own animals.
- Fair participants may not litter.
- Fair participants may not bring skateboards, bicycles or other unauthorized wheeled vehicles on the fairgrounds.
- The CGCF office assumes no liability for damage to or loss of personal property.
Common Ground Country Fair recognizes the unique perspectives of the various cultures represented in Maine and at the Fair. In order to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion at our events, MOFGA staff and the Fair Steering Committee are working with community members on new guidelines to address these issues.
Until those have been approved, we ask all participants to act with respect in their interactions, presentations, and marketing.
