Final Days to Get Tickets for Farm to Fork FUNdraiser
Spencer, Iowa — Time is running out to secure your spot at the 4th Annual Farm to Fork FUNdraiser, happening Saturday, May 3, at the Clay County Regional Events Center. Hosted by the Clay County Fair Charitable Trust, this evening of fine food, local stories, and community giving will support the future of the Clay County Fair.
The final deadline to purchase tickets is Monday, April 28, at 5:00 p.m. Tickets are $100 per person or $1,000 for a table sponsorship (includes seating for eight). Tickets can be purchased online at https://claycountyfair.kindful.com/e/farm-to-fork-fundraiser-2 or in person at the Events Center.
Guests will enjoy a four-course meal prepared by the Events Center’s own Chef Eric using locally sourced ingredients and musical entertainment from local favorite Ryan Sather.
Attendees will also hear from local youth involved in agriculture programs. These students will share how they are volunteering their time through these programs to assist with improvements to the fairgrounds’ facilities and will highlight the importance of agricultural education in shaping both their future and the future of the Clay County Fair.
The evening’s fundraising components include a 50/50 raffle, a live auction, and a highly anticipated online auction. The online auction opens on Friday, April 25. It is open to the public—attendance at the event is not required to participate. This year’s online auction will feature tickets to all Clay County Fair Grandstand events, including front-row seats. If you missed your chance to snag premium concert tickets, this is your second shot.
Proceeds from the Farm to Fork FUNdraiser benefit the Clay County Fair Charitable Trust, supporting youth in agriculture, investing in fairground improvements, and preserving the long-standing traditions of the Clay County Fair.
