The Penn State Ag Arena once again served as the location for the 2005 Great Insect Fair. An estimated 7,000+ people attended and many commented on another great experience at The Fair. Many thangs to to Steve Jacobs, Fair organizer, and the many committee members and volunteers who helped to make the Great Insect Fair possible. A huge thank you is also given to all who generously made a donation, helping to offset Fair expenses!

Bus transportation was available once again for tours of The Frost Entomological Museum's vast collection. They were treated to a behind-the-scenes view of the museum's facilities and some of the 700,000+ specimens.

Music performances were held on the lawn area and the Lady Bug Theatre presented "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by the American Reads Program.

The 2006 Great Insect Fair will be held on
September 23, 2006.
