Officials plan a free county fair in 1984 with no gate admission and fees for grandstand events and parking. County Agent Roger Flashinski noted the move could price out some larger families while maintaining event charges and gate controls.
The Rusk County Fair plans a free admission experiment next year to boost attendance and reduce family costs. Grandstand pricing is to be decided, but a $1 parking option and various entry fees may apply. Officials cite Trempealeau County’s six year run as a model and note potential benefits for exhibitors and midway operators.
Prices generally fell at the 8th annual Rusk County meat animal sale while heifers did well in the 10th Holstein calf project sale. 33 head sold for $14,448.09, down from last year’s $16,076 with 23 animals. The Holstein heifer sale grossed $15,625 from 14 head.
