Save The Fair is a grassroots effort to protect the OC Fairgrounds by locking in the zoning through a citizen-passed ballot initiative in Costa Mesa called Measure C.

It was founded by Jim Righeimer, Gary Monahan and Ethan Temianka; three Costa Mesa residents who didn’t want to see their beloved Orange County Fairgrounds turn into something else.

Jim Righeimer is also the Chairman of the Costa Mesa Planning Commission and Gary Monahan is a former Costa Mesa Mayor and current City Councilman.
