FAIR OAKS, CA (MPG) - The Fair Oaks Recreation and Park District is hosting a series of monthly pop-up events at Fair Oaks Park. These family-friendly events will occur the first Thursday of each month in conjunction with Food Truck Mania. The Fair Oaks chamber’s popular Classic Car Show will return in June.

On March 7, the Fair Oaks Recreation and Parks District partnered with local business leader and Fair Oaks Honorary Mayor, Katie Yount, on a Women in Business Expo that featured more than two dozen local businesses and organizations owned or run by women.

Next month’s pop-up event will be a Spring Craft Fair on April 4 from 5-8 p.m. at Fair Oaks Park.
