🌭 Fair Attendance Recap 🌭
The night before the fair, we buried hot dogs at every gate because someone claimed it would bring us good weather and great attendance. We figured, what did we have to lose?
And somehow…it worked.
Total 2026 attendance to an incredible 44,759 people!
We had a record breaking fair this year, setting attendance records on both Tuesday and Wednesday and celebrating our best overall attendance in more than 15 years.
We had beautiful weather, incredible crowds and one of the best fairs we have ever had.
Thank you to everyone who came out and supported the fair. We could not do it without you!
See you next year!
