The Dakota County Fair is scheduled for August 5-11, 2024. Our village comes alive with volunteers hosting in our buildings and representing life as it was back in the early 1900’s. Each volunteer is provided information about the building they volunteer in so they can share the history of the village and the building with visitors. Costumes are available also if volunteers wish to dress as a villager. Scooping ice cream, serving food and selling sweet corn are also volunteer opportunities. Please complete the online Volunteer Registration by clicking the “Become a Volunteer” below.
Our Sign up Genius option for the 2024 Fair dates will be available soon with a link on this page.
