En Ka Fair

Start Date

Second day of a two-day event!

In May, 1935 the En Ka Society held its first street fair. It was a novelty to Winchester and was a huge success, attracting thousands. It has grown from a single ride and a few games into a much anticipated occasion. Generations of families in Winchester and surrounding communities have attended and continue to support tradition.

Continuing to this day, the En Ka Fair marks the beginning of summer for many citizens, old and young alike. We hope you will join us in May for this fun-filled event!
