Again this year, the Big Fresno Fair continued several programs that recognize the achievements of the commu- nity’s brightest scholars, agri- cultural leaders and talented individuals. This year’s 8th Annual 4.0 & Above Program presented by Fresno County Superintendent of Schools, Friends of the Big Fresno Fair, EECU, Toyota and iHeart Media, gave away a record
number of 32 scholarships to Fresno County students.
All students grades 8-12 whose academic performance has earned them a 4.0 or above grade point average as of their 2018 spring semester were invited to the fair for free on Opening Day on Oct. 3, There, they had the opportunity to win scholarships totaling $87,000.
Prizes included six lap- tops, three Apple iPads, six $100 gift cards, as well as a new Toyota Corolla that was available exclusively to stu- dents in grades 9 to 12. Em- miterio Boyer, San Joaquin Memorial High School sopho- more, was the winner of the new car in a drawing.
Fair officials said planning is already underway for the 2019 Big Fresno Fair, which will run Oct. 2-14 and mark the fair’s 136th year.
