The 2023 Dickson County Fair was very successful for everyone involved. We had terrific support from Girl Scout Troop 642 and the Dickson County High School JROTC. The funds we raised will support our high school scholarship programs and numerous Veterans' Support Programs like Wounded Warriors, Fisher House, Operation Comfort Warrior, and the Nashville and Murfreesboro VA Christmas parties.
