Dexter Dairy Day alive but scaled back amid sponsor loss
Dexter Dairy Day was scaled back after the Valley Sertoma Club folded its major sponsorship. Attendance fell from a peak of about 8,000 to under 1,000 this year as organizers, led by local volunteers and Hy-Pro Feeds, tried to salvage the event with a dunk tank and volleyball tournament. City officials aim to rekindle dairy industry support and someday return to the historic celebration.
