Fair attendance likely highest in 20 years By TRISTA PRUETT Staff Reporter
Attendance for the 2013 Dodge County Fair may have hit the highest point in 12 years. Fair board secretary Sharon Keil noted that now that attendance numbers, including season passes are in, Wednesday was a record attendance day and Thursday was close to the record. “We’d be very shocked if it wasn’t [the highest attendance in 12 years] at this point,” Keil said. With season tickets, attendance on Wednesday was 11,179, Thursday was 10,097, Friday was 15,131 and Saturday was 12,981. Without Sunday, the total attendance was 49,388. See FAIR/Page 2
