Hi everyone!

Can you believe it’s already mid-June? It feels like the month just started and it’s already half over. Maybe it just feels that way because we’ve been so busy over here. Corndog Kickoff is just a little over three weeks away. That means we’ve all been hard at work trying to make the event the best it can be.

Right now, I’m working on getting all of the paper work together for the auction packages. That means I’m checking and rechecking everything. Basically, I’m becoming very familiar with the auction booklet and all that it contains. If you’re curious, you can check it out online before the event.

There are tons of cool silent auction packages to bid on (205 to be exact). There’s everything from art to fitness classes, golf bags to get away packages and everything in between. I’m excited to see which packages are most popular, seeing as I’ve already picked out my favorites.

I’m even more excited to see the live auction happen. I’ve never been to one and I can’t wait to see how competitive people are. Just like the silent auction, there are awesome packages available. I’ll give a little sneak peek again. Sticks created a special piece for the auction. It’s one of a kind and showcases everything people love about the Fair. There’s the Sky Glider, livestock, the Giant Slide, Fair food and, of course, the butter cow. Check it out below.

Be sure to get your tickets soon so you can bid on this package and many more. They’re available online or by calling the Foundation at 515-262-3111 ext. 371. Get them before June 30 for $75! After that, they’re available for $100, even at the door.

Hope to see everyone there!
