Volunteer opportunities are available, too.

“We are looking for hardworking candidates with excellent customer service skills who will help fair-goers with any questions they may have, ” said Stacy Rianda, a deputy manager with the fair.

The job fair will run from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the fair’s Commerce Building. The fairground is at 1121 S. Chance Ave. Directions to the fairground are at this link.
