NY Faeries Raise Hopes and Funds at Greater Binghamton Relay for Life

Volunteers from the NY Faerie Festival will be turning out for the Greater Binghamton Relay for Life at MacArthur Park on Friday, June 17th. This Spring, the NY Faerie Festival has been selling specially marked tickets as a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society, parent organization of the Relay. These goodwill ambassadors from the land of fantasy will be there to meet and greet the public as Team Faerie. In addition, the fundraiser tickets will be offered for sale at our booth.

The NY Faerie Festival is a family friendly event that will be held in Ouaquaga NY, on State Route 79, just east of Windsor, NY, twenty minutes from Binghamton on The last weekend in June (see below for details). Visit our web site at www.nyfaeriefest.com. Live the dream at the NY Faerie festival.

2011 NY Fareie Festival Crowded with New Faces

This weekend was the 2011 Faerie Festival in Ouaquaga, NY. Even though there were a few sprinkles, our crowd swelled to record proportions this year, topping 3500. Many new guests were the result of our spring fundraising campaign through the American Cancer Society Relay for Life. In addition to the first timers, many returnees were in attendance as well.

After a damp start to the weekend on Friday, June 24, the weather improved, until sunny skies were in evidence all day on Sunday. Our musical artists, faerie performers and craft vendors, who are all seasoned campaigners, kept spirits at the fair from flagging during the one or two sun showers that quickly passed through our enchanted glen.
