Education has been a commitment of Fairplex since its
inception in 1922. Our programs have grown and evolved into
an educational legacy for the surrounding communities. The
communities we serve represent one of the most populous,
ethnically and socio-economically diverse areas in the United
States. In 1980 the educational program at Fairplex began
with the development of the Child Development Center. In
1991 we established the official partnership with the University
of La Verne, and expanded the Center with a $1 million grant
from County Board of Supervisor Pete Schabarum. In 1998
Fairplex established the Foundations at Fairplex and, in
2010 they renamed The Learning Centers at Fairplex (TLC),

a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, which provides
a host of educational programs at Fairplex. TLC’s
unique programs offer our students hands-on
transformational education opportunities, from early
childhood education to adult learning.

TLC, as a nonprofit organization, is governed by
a volunteer board of directors. Funds to support
programs of TLC are received from individual
donations, special events, and grants from private
foundations, corporations, and government entities.
Fairplex provides financial support for administrative
staff costs so that every dollar donated goes directly
to support the programs and makes an immediate
impact on our students.

Programs of The Learning Centers include: The
Career & Technical Education Center, Child
Development Center, FairKids Field Trip Educational
Programs, and its complementary program Big
Yellow Bus, Junior Fair Board Leadership Program,
and the Millard Sheets Art Center.

While providing a nurturing early education program to
the community is part of the Fairplex Child Development
Center’s mission, the Center also concentrates on supporting
its employees. The Center is committed to the professional
development of its staff. Site Supervisor Salina Avalos and Office
Supervisor Vanessa Marquez are prime examples. Salina has
been with the CDC for 21 years. Starting as a preschool teacher,
Salina now supervises five preschool classrooms and 18 teachers.
She assists in developing curriculum while still acting as lead
teacher in her own classroom. She loves the Center so much her
children and a grandchild have attended.

Vanessa has spent 13 years at the CDC, moving up the ranks
to now overseeing the Center’s front office administration.
She formerly served as the community outreach liaison, which
afforded her the opportunity to network about the CDC. “I enjoy
serving the people of my community,” she said. “The CDC has
had a huge impact on the community.”

FieldFairKids Trips
Why is the FairKids Field Trip Program important?

A trip to the Fair offers so many experiences and hands-on learning in one place! It’s the
highlight of our year! We are so thankful for this opportunity.” — Gina Rogers, Primrose Academy

This is by far one of our favorite places to visit. Students
love being able to see and touch the animals in the Big Red
Barn. This real-life experience helps build academic language
as well as science and social science concepts from farm to
table to us! Thank you for making this resource available to all
students free of charge!” — Susan Courtney, teacher, Los Angeles

students at Fairplex, Jeff Warner had a plan. The harvesting
participated in and planting he did on the five-acre farm got under
Farm Field Trips his skin. “About a year after I started, I decided to
apply to the Master Gardener program with L.A.
3,300 County.” The County works with the University of
guests at California’s Cooperative Extension to provide this
Fall and Spring program. On The Farm, Warner had the opportunity
in The Farm to try several types of gardening that were new
to him — container gardening, hydroponics, and
aquaponics. Now, as a Master Gardener, he teachers
others how to grow their own vegetables or make
their own compost heap. As part of the UC Master
Gardener Program, he teaches classes at the LA
County Fair along with 30 other master gardeners
as part of the Grow LA Victory Garden Initiative.
“I love doing it ... it’s fantastic,” Jeff said.

Margie & Robert E.
Petersen Foundation

When it comes to sharing a love of cars, there isn’t a duo
who shared a greater common interest than Robert
E. Petersen and Alex Xydias. The late Mr. Petersen
owned Petersen Publishing Company (Hot
Rod Magazine, Car Craft, Motor Trend) and
founded the Petersen Automotive Museum.
Mr. Xydias, who started So-Cal Speed Shop
in 1946 and was the first to break the 200
mph barrier in his “So-Cal Streamliner”
in 1950, was an editor and publisher for
Petersen Publishing. The two were life-long
