Hi everybody from the Dubuque County Fairgrounds,

The 2018 Dubuque County Fair is over, the great crowds of people are gone and the cows, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens and rabbits have all went home.  The 4-H and FFA kids are finally getting some rest or have moved on to the State Fair.  The buildings and grounds are clean and ready to go for all of our other events.  But the most important things that is left to do, to say THANK YOU to all of you for making the 65th Annual Dubuque County Fair a great success! Thank you to all of our great sponsors, big and small, without your generosity we could not have had this great community event.  Thank you to all of the 4-H and FFA kids for showing us your livestock and reminding us the importance of agriculture in our lives! Thank you to all of the great volunteers, your time, effort and enthusiasm and love of the fair shows in all that you do.  Thank you to all of our local service organizations that ran our favorite food stands, what would the fair be without ice cold lemonade, a funnel cake and so much more.  Then they donate their proceeds back into improving our community.  This fair is about uniting our County, both rural, agricultural and urban.  Most of all, a huge thank you to all that attended this year’s fair. Thanks to the parents and grandparents for bringing out their kids and grandkids, because the smiles on their faces, their laughter and their squeals of excitement is what the fair is all about.  The fair is all about community, family, friends, and great memories. From all of us at the Dubuque County Fair Association, our staff and myself, thank you for your support!

Make sure to send an email to me, [email protected], if you have any suggestions for next year’s fair and concerts!
