Huell Howser, television personality best known for California’s Gold, the PBS travel show has been working with the California Division of Fairs and Expositions on a new project called California’s Golden Fairs. The series features 11 California Fairs, the interesting people and fantastic events held at California fairs each year. The original plan was to roll out the series in the Spring of 2011.
Huell is so excited about the project that he will “sneak preview” six episodes on PBS stations throughout California starting this September. The first episode of the sneak preview to air will feature the Amador County Fair on KVIE, Sacramento, Tuesday, September 14, 2010 at 7:00 PM and again on Thursday, September 30, 2010 at 8:00 PM. Check your local listing for times in your area. All shows aired in this sneak preview will be shown again as a part of the spring 2011 series.
Huell will feature 11 California Fairs including, Amador County Fair, Marin County Fair, Calaveras County Fair, Trinity County Fair, Riverside County Fair and Indio Date Festival, San Diego County Fair held at Del Mar, El Dorado Fair, Alameda County Fair, Monterey County Fair, Nevada County Fair, and the Big Fresno Fair. Huell Howser Productions will produce a compilation episode focusing on the rich history and relevance of all California fairs.
In conjunction with the Division of Fairs and Exposition’s statewide marketing program, the series will promote the awareness, importance, and relevance of California fairs. We are grateful for the sincerity and energy Huell has put into this series and the wonderful people who participated to help make California fairs the respected and important community assets they have become.
