Youth Ambassador Board
- As part of the Walton County Fair's ongoing commitment to youth development, we have created the Walton County Fair Youth Ambassador Board.

- The Walton County Fair Board believes in the positive influence community service projects have toward overall youth development. We are proud to provide this scholarship to youth in Walton County in hopes to help achieve educational goals beyond the high school level.
