Happy Friday!
Summer is now well underway, and we are counting down the days until the Iowa State Fair! Although the Iowa State Fair is the greatest 11 days ever, don’t forget one of our other super fun events, our annual Corndog Kickoff.
Happening July 12th, the Corndog Kickoff is a fun-filled night complete with live entertainment, all of your Fair food favorites, and a variety of unique auction packages to satisfy any State Fair enthusiast. Nearly 2,200 people come together to bid on over 30 live auction packages and 200 silent auction packages (I’ve taken a sneak peek at some of the packages, and you don’t want to miss them!)
If you want to find an excellent way to promote your company, donating an auction package is a great way as it will be seen by over 2,000 people! There are also some additional benefits besides promotion, including complimentary tickets to the event, and publicity in event materials. If you are interested in donating an auction item, please fill out and return the donation form.
Wanting to get in on this awesome event? There are multiple ways to buy tickets! You may buy tickets online here or stop by our office to purchase them. Tickets are $100 each, but starting July 1, they increase to $125, so don’t wait! Tickets include a complimentary photo, food and drink, fireworks, Sky Glider rides, and more! Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and last-minute tickets will be available for purchase at the doors of the Varied Industries Building starting at 5:30 p.m., the night of the event.
Don’t miss your opportunity to join us and support the renovation of our legendary State Fairgrounds. I am looking forward to seeing all of you there!
