Between now and April 7th, about 550,000 people are expected to push through turnstiles at the Miami-Dade Youth Fair.
"Just looking forward to giving them that next year of memories with their families, " said Eddie Cora, President of The Fair. He says along with the traditional fair food and rides there are some 40,000 student projects.
"Our mission is to promote agriculture and support and promote youth achievement through education, " Cora added.
The Youth Fair is considered one of the largest fairs in North America and since it's inaugural run in 1952, it's returned millions of dollars to the community through scholarships and other programs.
