It's not celebrated in conjunction w/ the Ag Fair. The Ag Fair is in February while VI/PR Friendship Day is in October. The day is to celebrate the cultural ties between the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. They celebrate it on the same day as Columbus Day, since a lot of people here do not believe in celebrating Columbus.
