The Hessler Street Fair is also the primary fund-raiser for the Hessler Neighborhood Association (HNA). The HNA, in turn, uses these funds to help preserve and maintain the Hessler Road neighborhood. The Hessler Street Fair to promotes a spirit of togetherness and care-free fun in a home-grown atmosphere of family-friendly entertainment.
