You might also try the Northwest Adoption Exchange www.nwae.org they might know of fairs and if not they may know who to contact.

Good luck,

Here's another phone number to get you going:
The Boys and Girls Aid Society of Oregon 503-222-9661, or outside of the Portland Metro area 1-800-342-6688 They have a web site for their Family Matters Newsletter: http://www.boysandgirlsaid.org/looki...ilymatters.asp
If you aren't already getting the Family Matters newsletter you should subscribe.
