Town Fair Returning to Baltimore Crossroads, Middle River

The Perry Hall/White Marsh Business Association is holding a meeting for the 2013 Town Fair on Jan. 28.

Planning for the Town Fair—which generated a passionate response from community members last year, after losing "Perry Hall/White Marsh" from its title and moving to a Middle River zip code—is already underway.  The 17th annual fair is scheduled for Saturday, July 13 for a second year at Baltimore Crossroads @95, according to fair organizer and president of the Perry Hall/White Marsh Business Association Lynn Richardson.  Richardson urges community members to get involved in the planning process. The committee's first meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. on Jan. 28 at Madison Square Federal Savings Bank in Perry Hall.  "I encourage anyone who wants input for the fair to join us ... The retailers and property owners have indicated that they are …

Baltimore Crossroads to Host Perry Hall/White Marsh Town Fair

The town fair is expected to move to a mixed-use business center in Middle River.

The 2012 Perry Hall/White Marsh Town Fair is expected to be held at Baltimore Crossroads @95, a fair planner announced on Wednesday. Baltimore Crossroads @95 is a mixed-use business center located along White Marsh Boulevard in Middle River. Follow Perry Hall Patch on Facebook and Twitter. The 16th annual summer fair is scheduled for July 14, according to Lynn Richardson, president of the Perry Hall/White Marsh Business Association, which organizes and sponsors the fair. "We're looking at this as a very positive thing. The only downside is that it's not in a [Perry Hall or White Marsh] zip code. Now it's become a little more of a regional fair, rather than just a local fair," Richardson told Patch. Al Cunniff, director of marketing for the…

Carole, regardless of politics, this Middle Perry River Hall Fair is absurd. I haven't lived here for many years, but this is the kind of stuff that demeans the area.   more ›

I always enjoy going to the fair, as it gives me a chance to see people from the neighborhood that I may not see on a regular basis. I did think the fair was a good size this year and it seemed well attended. My only thought was that there seemed to be less crafts and more businesses trying to sell things, which I understand is also a purpose of the fair, creating new business for the local …   more ›

Town Fair Grows Larger, Retains Community Feel

Fairgoers flocked to the Honeygo Village Center for family fun.

Bigger and busier than ever, attendees still felt at home during Saturday's Perry Hall/White Marsh Town Fair, said Dennis M. Robinson, Jr., president of the Perry Hall Improvement Association. "Perry Hall has a small town, community feel. It's wonderful to see the community come together and have a great time," Robinson said. The Perry Hall/White Marsh Business Association, which coordinated the event, anticipated a record crowd—up to 15,000 people—to visit Honeygo Village Center for music, food, kids activities, community exhibits and numerous family activities. County Executive Kevin Kamenetz, who delivered a welcome speech to fairgoers, said he was impressed by the fair's enthusiastic showing. "People were here right at 10," Kamenetz …

To clarify, I do NOT mean to imply that all activities should be free. Only that it should be clearly advertised as such along with the fact that cash only may be used - and with the multiple posters seen throughout the community (very good job on the advertising by the way!) with no mention, and then no way for a handicapped person to obtain cash easily - this could be made better.
