Kids had their own Zone at EcoFair360, where they had a chance to create using recycled materials, practice sustainability at the micro level, and even get up close and personal with a few bees.

A Special Note of Thanks To:

  • All of our Sponsors (click here to see them all) and Organizing Committee Members (click here to see them all). EcoFair360 would not have happened without your support and effort.
  • Elkhorn Mayor Howie Reynolds, for opening up the Fair
  • Mayor Reynolds' right hand person, Shari McKinney, for assisting us in too many details to count.
  • The Elkhorn Chamber of Commerce, who promoted the Fair in the months before the event and provided materials and assistance in the Walworth County booths.
  • The Walworth County Fairgrounds Staff, whose experience and understanding was invaluable.
  • The Wisconsin Department of Tourism for their JEM grant and for certifying us as a Travel Green Wisconsin Destination.
  • ALL of our volunteers, who sat at gates, directed traffic, greeted with a smile, put up and took down signs and other materials, watched over the kids playing and helped out in so many different ways.
  • Mike Slavney, whose Fair-opening talk on the potential green future of Walworth County got us off to a great start.
  • Wolcott Water for providing free, filtered water on demand, allowing us to keep plastic water bottles off the EcoFair360 grounds.
  • MEE Material Handling, who donated one of their electric vehicles for the entire run of the Fair. We put some serious miles on that cart.
  • Signs of the Times in Delavan, who donated materials for projects in the Kids Zone.
  • All of the businesses who donated Silent Auction items: Grand Geneva Resort, Walworth County's first green-certified hotel, who generously donated the highest-value item; SUN Ovens, who donated two of their Global SUN Ovens (the chicken was delicious!), Four Lakes Athletic Club, Delbrook Golf Club, the Shrimp House, J. Roberts and more.
  • Our Exhibitors and Presenters, who kept the crowds informed and engaged throughout the three days.
