Dale: "Yeah, on November 29rth, we are going to be hosting our second annual Central Wisconsin State Fair Christmas Show and it's a dinner show that we will be having. The band will be the Holy Rocka Rollaz and they do 50s and 60s rock, but they do a whole set of Christmas music."

"I mean, it's just fantastic to rock around the Christmas tree and I think it will begin to get everybody in the Christmas spirit and it should be a very good show. The dinner that evening is going to be catered by Me and Mom's Catering and it'll be beef tips and chicken. And everybody that has ever eaten Me and Mom's Catering has raved about it, so very interesting and entertaining evening we've got planned for you."

Riley: "What are the cost of the tickets?"

Dale: "The dinner show that evening will be $60 and that will include your food and your entertainment. And there will be beverages available for purchase. I mean, we have coffee, water, that type of thing, and it comes with your meal. But other than that, there will be other beverages that will be there and will be available."

"And, when the band takes a break, we will be crowning our Fairest at the Fair for the following year and we will be doing raffle baskets. We will be doing an auction. All of this is fundraising. All proceeds go to our building fund, which is focusing on a new exhibit building with an office. So that's kind of it in a nutshell."

Riley: "And if people want to purchase some tickets ahead of time, where are the places they can go to do that?"

Dale: "Tickets are available here at the fair office and they are also available at the MACCI office in Marshfield, and, if you want, you give us a phone call at 715-387-1261, we'll take care of you and get your tickets in the mail to you, and we can do it that way too."

Riley: "Anything else?"

Dale: "A couple things that I'd want to say is with the auction items that we are going to be having, I know we've got a bigger, nice glider that would go on somebody's deck, if you're looking for that. And one of the unique items we are going to have on the auction is a Brett Farve item."

"It's a plaque that's about, oh, it's about two feet wide, maybe three and a half feet long, and it's from Brett Farve, the game of his life, the December 22nd 2003 game where Packers beat the Raiders, 41-7 and that was shortly after Brett's dad had passed and he had that record setting night."

There are five photographs on there, and that are autographed, and it is a very unique collectors piece. So, if anybody is in the market for Green Bay Packer memorabilia, I mean, this thing would look good hanging up above somebody's bar in the basement. So, it's a fantastic piece. And if you're interested in that just come to the show, get your bids in or give us a call in the office. We'd like to find it a very good home."
