The 2012 Cherokee Triangle Art Fair could not have been accomplished without the cooperation of the residents along Cherokee Parkway or the 1300 blocks of Cherokee Road and Everett Avenue.  These neighbors give up their front yards and on street parking for three days so their neighborhood association can hold its major annual fundraiser.  We cannot thank you enough.

Another huge thank-you goes out to each of the over 300 volunteers without whom the Fair could not exist.  Our volunteers work for hours on the Friday before the Fair setting up the Food Court, Plant Booth, Children’s Art Tent and Association Booth.  On Saturday and Sunday volunteers man the booths, helping patrons select food and drink, plants and CTA logo merchandise and help kids make paper hats and objects of clay.  It is the volunteers who make this fair happen.  Volunteers include residents, friends and the senior class of Louisville Collegiate School.  Thanks to all of you.

Two extremely neighborhood-minded businesses also deserve much gratitude for their contributions to this fair.  Heine Brothers Coffee provides coffee as early as 6 a.m. on both Saturday and Sunday for the artists and volunteers who are preparing to open for business those mornings.  Keith’s Hardware not only provides the popcorn, oil and popcorn bags for the Fair, but allows us to borrow their in-store popcorn machine for the weekend.  Extraordinary neighborliness deserves high praise and patronage.

Thank you.

Jerry Lyndrup
