The following are free: admission, parking, the gorgeous redwood tree scenery, the fresh outdoor air. However, we encourage you to bring cash, checks and credit cards so that you can enjoy the food, beverages, cookies and, of course, take home those treasured pieces of art.
I've found several treasures and want some more cash. Where is the nearest ATM?
The ATM is located in the Fire House, between the Information desk and the popcorn stand.
Why shouldn’t I bring my pet?
Despite what we people think, it just is not a pleasant experience for our companion animals. My friend Sparky says, “My people never want to look at the things I want to see. I’m also afraid that Spike will be there and my people keep forgetting that we just don’t get along. Nobody likes my sculptures and there are just too many trees to choose from.”
Can I take SamTrans to the Fair?
We are located in a rural area. The closest bus stop is at the corner of Highway 92 and Skyline Blvd., at least 6 miles away. It is not served on weekends.
Do you have Handicap Parking?
No, Handicap parking is not available. However, there is a “drop-off” area at the main entrance of the Fair.
What bands will be playing at the Fair?
Because of our unique location in the forest, there is no room for an audience to gather and enjoy the music. Wandering musicians have been tried in the past but only caused congestion and frustrating situations. We invite you to enjoy the sounds of the forest instead.
Is there any room for “free speech” or public service tables at the Fair?
Because our Fair is a fundraiser for our Volunteer Fire Brigade and other community organizations, every booth space must generate income. Thus, no "free speech" or public service tables may be accommodated.
We do our best to list the ingredients on our menu; however, there is a splash of beer in the pancakes.
What does it take to become a volunteer firefighter?
It takes just as much as it takes to be a professional firefighter. Our volunteers receive the same training (initially 114 hours) as professionals. They are required to maintain annual certification in five areas. Many are also EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) certified. They make this commitment because the closest emergency services are at least 20 minutes away in Belmont on Tower Road (10 miles northeast near the interchange of Highways 280 and 92) or at Skylonda (8 miles south at the corner of Highway 84 and Skyline Blvd.).
What exactly is considered Kings Mountain?
Kings Mountain is geographically defined as Skyline Blvd. between Highway 92 and Bear Gulch Road Wast, including the ancillary roads.
Do you have a Lost and Found?
Lost and Found items are collected at the Information Desk during the Fair. Every effort is made to match items to their owners. Items left unclaimed are held for six (6) months and then disposed of appropriately. If you have lost something please contact us.
