We are another week closer to the fair, but even closer to the Corndog Kickoff! Tickets are still $75 until June 30th and you can order them by phone or online. As Kate mentioned last week, not only will there be a ton of cool packages to auction off, the entertainment this year is definitely something you don't want to miss. I would tell you, but I think it's best you just come and see for yourself!! You will surely be getting your moneys worth.

Aside from Corndog Kickoff preparation, there is just over a week left to nominate for Iowan of the Day.  If you haven't seen it yet, I put together a video that goes into greater detail of how this program originated. It is actually up on the Iowa State Fair youtube page or on our facebook page if you want to catch the inside scoop. I didn't even know prior to promoting this program how exactly Iowan of the Day came about. Being that the foundation would not be nearly as successful without our volunteers, it only makes sense to give back! This is our way of saying thank you to not only people that volunteer at the fair, but all the individuals that make a difference in their respective communities. I'm pretty confident the judge panel is going to have a tough time narrowing it down to just ten!

Have a great week!

Until next time
