Project Overview
We will be using the money to hire Minnesota-based entertainment for our free stage. We will be bringing in a Rockabilly entertainer, which is rock n' roll music with roots in music of the American South during the 1950's. This band is from Rochester, MN. We also have two other bands that play old time music and country music. Both are local artists from our hometown of Austin, MN. Another local band will be doing country music. Our final artist is an Elvis Impersonator. He is from Harmony, MN.

Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
We expect to have at least 100-300 attend the different entertainment shows. We know that some will get more people. We will have our vice president of the Mower County Fair Agricultural Society walk thru each show to count the people in the stands.
