Project Overview

We are going to have a different balloon artist this year. We are inviting a southeast Minnesota resident to perform for our youth. We will also have The Red Letter Band, an inspirational country music band. They perform a variety of classic county hits and have prize giveaways for crowd participation. They provide a nostalgic opportunity to listen to music that all will enjoy.

Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We will have a fair board member count the participants at each show. We will document these events with a photographer that we hope will be covering the fair for our Facebook presence., , The outcome for the Red Letter Band will not only be the number of participants, but how long they stay at the show. We will do a count of participants at the beginning, middle, and end of the performance. We will also do a subjective assessment of how much the audience is staying engaged, as the band is playing.
