On April 10, we will host the Fairmont Memorial Walk.  The one-mile walk will kick off the 2026 Charley Clayton Memorial Peep Festival and was created to provide a meaningful community event to honor and remember loved ones and celebrate their lives.  The registration fee includes a t-shirt (deadline March 21) and benefits our annual scholarship for a Marion County senior.
