What do you call it when you have 9 governors, 5 senators, 2 incredibly talented businesspeople, and one world-famous surgeon running for the Republican nomination? The Field of Dreams of course.
 
The Iowa GOP had a little fun this year and created our own Field of Dreams backdrop, with candidates emerging from an Iowa cornfield ala the classic 1989 movie. You have to see our booth to believe it: Right inside the Varied Industries building’s north entrance, immediately to your right.
 
 
Candidate Visits: We expect a steady stream of Republican candidates to visit our booth. Please give me a call or email for specific candidates and times.

Fair 101

Food: Not worth going into all the amazing things you’ll find. Yes, much of it is on a stick. I urge you all — especially those of you ostensibly on a diet — to ditch the diet for a few days and indulge in fried mac ’n’ cheese, pork chops on a stick, and the many other stick-related items. Full list here. Do the right thing.
