What is the Fair Havens Season Site Committee?
The Fair Havens Season Site Committee is made up of a small group of people who reside on Fair Havens Season Sites. Our goal is to help provide entertaining activities, facilitate fund raising events, and generally assist in communication and relations between the Season Siters and Fair Havens Ministries.
For 2023, the Season Site Committee consists of the following people:
David Lewis
Dorothy Lewis
George Needles
Jean Ostrander
John Ashton
Pat Ashton
Lorne Atkins (temporary)
Peter Rosefield
Phil Medler (Chair)
Rae-Lynn
Sam Saif
Sarah Saif
Sue Medler
The committee works hard to find creative ways to raise money for the many projects that arise each year. This helps to keep our site fees from experiencing major increases.
Some of our fund raising events have included the:
Annual Fair Havens Auction
Silent Auctions
Flea Market
Bazaar (2016 Anniversary Fair)
Carnival Sno-cones
Carnival Lollypop Tree
One Country Fair / Season
