“We’re trying to make Ingalls Park a destination point in the city. We want all the events we can get up there, and
have people to come and perform there.” — Berwin Hanna, Mayor
“We have people come from
all over, including Chino and Redlands,” he says. “Many people are especially having trouble put- ting food on the table this year, and they really need this.” Volunteers make Miracle on
Sixth Street happen, and the same goes for Norco’s biggest event of the year, the Norco Valley Fair. Held on Labor Day Weekend at Ingalls Park, the fair features equestrian events every evening, including a rodeo. Vendors sell a variety of food, goods and ser- vices, and carnival rides entertain the kids. “T e Norco Valley Fair is largest
all-volunteer fair in California,” says Kevin Russell with the Norco Chamber of Commerce. “No one gets paid except for the security people.” T e Norco Horsemen’s Association and the Norco Valley Lions Club provide volunteer ser- vices. Vendors who participate in the fair donate 5 percent of their profi ts to charitable organizations in Corona and Norco. T e orga-
em
nizations that man the beer and wine booths are allowed to keep a portion of the proceeds, which they donate to local charities. World-Class Venues Although recent years have
proved tough, especially for the horse industry, Norco has man- aged to move ahead with two projects that put the town on the map with an exclamation point when it comes to equine venues. First is the renovation of George Ingalls Equestrian Center. Named in honor of slain Norco resident George Ingalls, who received the Congressional Medal of Honor in 1969 for sacrifi cing his life in Vietnam saving his fel- low soldiers, the park has enjoyed a series of improvements in line with its master plan. With the expansion of Ingalls, including a second covered are- na, has come an expansion of capabilities to host more events. Last month, the facility hosted the Sierra Empire Arabian Horse Association’s multi-day show, drawing praise as well as out of
