Since
1972, friends and neighbors in the small village of Lucketts,
Virginia, have been putting on an annual fair at the Old Lucketts
School. This tradition began as a tribute to that fine old 1900's
building and to the school's many graduates.
Over the years, the schoolhouse has been a focal point and gathering
place for local residents. In 1981, it became the Lucketts Community
Center, an affiliate of Loudoun County Department of Parks,
Recreation and Community Services and the Lucketts Community
Center Advisory Board (LCCAB) was formed.

The
Old Lucketts School, listed on the National Register of Historic Places,
serves as the backdrop for this genuine, old-fashioned country fair
held each August in beautiful Loudoun County, Virginia. Fair proceeds
help restore and maintain the Old Lucketts School building and fund
preschool and camp scholarships as well as an English for Families
program.
Well,
visitors loved our Fair, and volunteers worked eagerly to make each
year’s Fair a success. With the help of Fair proceeds, the schoolhouse
was restored and is now included on the National Register of Historic
Places.
With proceeds from the fair the LCCAB has been able to build playgrounds
and ball fields, acquire land for expansion, renovate the stage for
our Bluegrass Series, and support the recreational interests and need
of our community.
The
Lucketts Community is proud of the Fair and invites you to celebrate
this summer tradition with us!
