Greene County boasts enough winners at the Iowa State Fair to tempt folks to give competing a try. If that’s what you thought last August, be reminded now that the deadline to enter many of the fair’s competitive events is July 1.
Premium books and entry forms can be accessed at iowastatefair.org/premiumbooks. Entrants in competitive events may enter online or submit their entry by mail. While most entries are due July 1, deadlines do vary by department. Many departments will accept late entries through July 8 with additional fees. For more information regarding entry deadlines, competitions or the online entry system, contact the State Fair’s Competitive Events Department at 515-262-3111, ext. 207.
