Wednesday is the start of the Door County Fair, but you will notice a lot of the work that goes into it begins now. Some of the carnival rides that will be featured on the midway this year were heading towards John Miles County Park in Sturgeon Bay on Monday, fresh off of some of the other fairs occurring in the state over the weekend. The set-up for the grounds itself is also underway. Making sure the park is ready to welcome the thousands of people who attend the fair is how Mike Kuehn of Door County Custom Creations stayed involved in the event over the years. He says the fair is a great opportunity for the community to unite.

At home, members of 4-H, FFA, and other organizations ensure their projects are ready to be judged on Wednesday before they go on display for the remainder of the fair. Door County 4-H Educator Candis Dart says exhibitors should keep many things in mind before they bring their projects.
