Dairy Days are practically here! With such a warm and welcome spring season, this year’s 93rd Fredericksburg Dairy Days Celebration should be one for the record books! Whether you plan on joining in the sporting events, or just come for the food, we can’t wait to see you and your family at Midway this year.
At Northeast Security Bank we’re excited for all things Dairy Days! If you still need to get into the Dairy Days spirit, take a look at these seven reasons, why you won’t want to miss this annual event!
Because, who wouldn’t want to honor one of Iowa’s most important industries? With agriculture as the backbone of this great state, it’s no wonder we have such exciting and seasonal celebrations.
Scenes like these can make anyone’s day better! (Including the chicken’s.)
You’ll feel overjoyed once your favorite fair-food treats are finally back in town! Funnel cake, corn dogs, and cotton candy just to name a few.
Your show cattle can finally earn the appreciation they deserve! Good thing you friends will be there to see it too!
The thunderous BOOMS and BANGS of the firework show. We always look forward to the big finale!
A perfect strawberry-rhubarb pie can win you instant fame. Plus you take home the bragging rights!
It’s finally time to rock and roll all night! And party every day.
However you decide to enjoy the upcoming Dairy Days, we hope you and your family enjoy this fun-filled celebration. Be sure to join us for the Money in the Hay event, on Wednesday, June 7th! We can’t wait to see you there.
