Hi ya’ll! Guess what?!? There is only 11 days, 14 hours and 22 minutes until the 2015 Iowa State Fair! I hope you are getting excited, because I sure know that I am! Everything is definitely picking up here at the office. It’s been eventful week at the Blue Ribbon Foundation.

Construction on the MidAmerican Energy Stage is moving right along and the stage looks amazing! Make sure you check it out when you visit the Fair this year. Acts like Vocal Trash, Sir Mix-A-Lot, the Village People and many others will be performing there.

Speaking of construction, this week we got the walkway to our office repaired, which was definitely needed. It was noisy and lots of people located around the office, but it looks great! And it’s just in time for us to test it out before the Fair.  

We’ve also been receiving all of the new merchandise. We spent part of yesterday organizing everything so it’s ready to go! So make sure you stop by one of our merchandise booths to check out all of the cool things! We are located in the Agricultural Building, Cattle Barn, Museum Gift Shop, Varied Industries Building and our two trailers are on the Grand Concourse.

Today I am spending the day creating volunteer badges! Which reminds me…If you are still interested in volunteering at the 2015 Iowa State Fair, please give me a call! We still have plenty of shifts available and would love to have you! You can reach me at (515) 262-3111 ext. 379 or email me at Maggie@BlueRibbonFoundation.org.

Well, that’s all I have for now! Hope everyone has a great Saturday, and let the countdown to the 2015 Iowa State Fair begin!
