Fair board emphasizes live music; parks renovations wrap ahead of summer
Summary
Facilities staff told the committee the county fair will feature two live music acts every day and listed a string of park rehabilitation projects completed or underway, including plans to finish Pine View by early July.
Facilities staff reported updates from the Fair Board and the facilities group, highlighting expanded live entertainment at the Dunn County Fair and recent park rehabilitation work.
A staff member said the fair will include "2 live music acts every day of the fair, from Thursday till Sunday," and that the county had coordinated with Red Cedar Racing to co-host three nights of racing to broaden exposure. The speaker said outreach and co-hosting should help notify more residents who follow different event pages online.
The speaker summarized recent parks work, saying four parks were renovated last fall (Russian Slew, Champney Park, Pine View and Lake Manoma) and said Pine View would be finished with topsoil and overseeding so it would "look really nice by July 4." The highway department’s chip-sealing of County Highway Z next door is scheduled for July 6, which staff said will allow coordinated completion of park and road work.
The report also noted donations toward LED conversions and fans for fair buildings and described practical steps taken to save costs during renovations.
