The Ionia Free Fair Foundation Fund was created in September of 2009. This is a permanent endowment fund that ensures the Ionia Free Fair will be supported with a perpetual stream of income for years to come.
The income that is generated from this endowment fund can only be used to help with the capital improvements, the preservation and maintenance of the Ionia Free Fair grounds. It cannot be used for any other reason.
The Ionia Free Fair Foundation Fund is completely overseen by the Grand Rapids Community Foundation. Some past improvements that have been made over the past years have been:
- Electrical work on the southside of the track
- Electrical work in the campgrounds
- Electrical work in the infield
- Work on the big barn in the back
- And this year, the replacement of the large Ionia Free Fair sign at the front entrance of the fairgrounds.
We currently have over $147,000.00 in our endowment fund and we hope to raise this amount to over $1,000,000.00 in years to come, which will generate more funds we can draw off of each year to improve the grounds.
