Faithful Fairgoers,
If you’ve considered nominating an outstanding Iowan in your community for the Iowan of the Day Award, now is the time to make their State Fair dreams come true! Each of the ten Iowan of the Day winners will receive an unforgettable day of recognition at the 2025 Iowa State Fair that includes:
- $200 cash award
- Hotel accommodations at the Des Moines Marriott Downtown
- Four Iowa State Fair gate admission tickets
- Four Grandstand show tickets for the night of his/her award day
- Use of the Iowan of the Day golf cart for his/her day at the Fair
- Introduction and award presentation on the Anne & Bill Riley State
- VIP parking
We have received several incredible nominations already, but we know there are more Iowans who deserve our gratitude and a day of fun at our beloved Iowa State Fair. We need your help identifying Iowans who have made a significant contribution to their communities while embodying the values associated with Iowa: integrity, dependability and a strong work ethic!
More information and nomination forms are available here. All Iowan of the Day nominations must be postmarked no later than July 1, 2025. Nominees must currently reside in Iowa.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 515-262-3111 Ext. 378 or PublicRelations@BlueRibbonFoundation.org. We can’t wait to hear about the amazing Iowans in your life!
-Grace
