How Many Days Left?
May 23, 2016
Since I started as an intern here at the Blue Ribbon Foundation in mid-January, I have spent most of my lunch breaks at the nearby Subway. I have recently started bringing in my lunch, but when I frequented the same Subway, the employees would occasionally ask me how many days left until the 2016 Iowa State Fair and I would always answer, too many! When I did not go to Subway for my lunch today, I was reminded that we only have 79 days left!
79 days left until the biggest event in the state and only 79 days left until corndogs, lemonade and the Giant Slide! Speaking of days left, we have 88 days left until the 5K and only 46 days left until the Corndog Kickoff Benefit Auction. We are putting final touches on the auction booklet and just sent out the invitation. Tickets for the event are now available for purchase and will remain available until the night of the event. Please make sure to purchase tickets early for our special pricing, and come celebrate the greatest parts of the Iowa State Fair 33 days early. You can purchase tickets on our Corndog Kickoff Tickets page.
As we are finalizing the auction booklet, we are still accepting donations to be added to the silent auction. Please visit our auction page to see further information, and descriptions of the packages. Thank you to our volunteers that have served on the committees and thank you to the donors of items, without your contribution, the Corndog Kickoff could not have grown into the great event it is!
