THU-SUN | SEP 20-OCT 27
Sign-up for the Fair Now!

Down below is a wonderful list of days we can take God's Word to the people attending the Arizona State Fair. As many as 1.5 MILLION people go through the fair grounds. Even if only 10% pass our booth, that is 150,000 people in our highways and byways. All are worthy of knowing Christ. Sadly, many haven't a clue.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
  • Does signing up mean I am scheduled? 
    • No! Signing up here means you are available to serve.
  • Who schedules me?
    • Each day is managed by a camp.
    • The camp manager is by default the camp president, but he could delegate this to someone else.
    • It is the camp manager's responsibility for the days you offer to work to make sure you are informed about how you will be integrated into the daily schedule.
  • Is the Weekly Coordinator the automatic replacement? No!
    • The weekly coordinator handles an entire week.
    • He is the hands and feet that makes sure you have cool water, maintains enough scriptures, generally assist the camp manager in being sure we are correctly manned for all hours the fair is open.
    • The weekly coordinator is not the fill-in for gapped hours. It is the camp manager's responsibility to handle those issues.
  • What is the minimum number of people in the booth?
    • One! That complies with AESF rules of 100% manning during open hours.
      • The fair is "open" until the Grande Ferris Wheel goes dark, typically one hour after ticket sales ends.
    • Two is our desired count at low intensity times (usually very early or very, very late).
    • Three or more during evening shifts.
  • May Auxiliary and widows help at the booth? Yes!
    • The fair is a Gideon distribution assisted by the Auxiliary.
    • Auxiliary may work in the booth with her Gideon husband only.
    • Widows may work with a Gideon/Auxiliary couple only.
    • Auxiliary whose husbands cannot work at the fair are scheduled with Gideon/Auxiliary couples only.
  • What is the appropriate dress?
    • Gideon corporate wear or Gideon casual are recommended.
    • Suit or tie is out of place and probably suicidal in the heat, but it's your life..
    • No shorts. No jeans.
    • No political wear/logos of any sort. Only the Gideon or Auxiliary emblems are allowed.
    • Wear shoes to keep you on your feet for a shift.
  • What is our focus?
    • School kids fifth grade and up.
    • Adults with those kids.
    • We will not deny a testament to anyone who asks. Try to give a brief witness.
  • What testaments do we place?
    • Any variety of Orange Sidewalk Testaments, ESV or KJV.
    • PWTs (Gideon or Auxiliary) are not necessary in the booth. You may bring your own for use outside the fairgrounds.
  • Who provides the testaments?
    • Technically, the state undistributed fund bought 20,000.
    • Mostly Scottsdale and Paradise Valley have funded this year's testaments from generous gifts to those camps to promote the faith locally.
  • How is the booth funded?
    • Camps contribute to the $6,400 annual booth cost.
  • Why are we outside?
    • Bluntly, no none walks down religion row in the Exhibition venue! Jehovah's Witness at one end and Roman Catholic at the other seem to repel the crowds.
    • AESF gives us freedom to reach out that they won't allow inside. We still must remain at the booth to maintain that freedom. 
  • Still got questions?
