Really, when you get right down to it... the sky is the only limit on these things.
Like Libertygranny, we haven't had one (in our ward) for some years now either (low participation), but we have a monthly class on a variety of topics that is offered by the stake (in conjunction with our neighboring stake) and even that class usually only has about 20 to 30 students (and that's from 2 stakes numbering together about 1200 members).
I think these (ward level fairs) should really be geared for the beginners/new converts, etc, but still need to have some other stuff, to hopefully bring out those who are pretty well set, and those who only think they're pretty well set...
I wish there was more talk from the pulpit about temporal preparedness.
I know Spiritual preparedness trumps temporal preparedness big-time, but we wouldn't be given guidance to temporally prepare unless we are gone really need it, and only a very, very small percentage of the membership at large have much of anything at all.
