In 2023, the fair board decided to start the All-Counties Benefit Jackpot Show as a fundraiser to raise money for Kim Drum, a Harrisburg local who was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lymphoma Cancer. The support we received was so significant that it was decided to start a scholarship to honor Kim and her continued fight against cancer. 75% of the earnings from entries goes back to the winning exhibitors, while 25% of the earnings will be sent into the scholarship fund that was set up by the fair board. Each year, the Poinsett County Fair Association will give out one $500.00 scholarship to a graduating senior planning on attending a level of higher education, whether it be to a university or trade school.
