We will be in the big tent this year with several giveaways and education materials available. We also plan to have FREE Water test kits for well water. It is recommended to have your well water tested every year.Now is your time to get your test kit for free. The three test kits we normally have are bacteria, metals, and nitrates. They are timed tests, so it is important to adhere to the schedule for turning them in on time. The three test usually cost just under $50 for us to get and then shipping to return tests for testing is just under $85 for the district. However, you can get your tests at the fair and they are free.
