🎡 We Need Your Honest Feedback, Community! 🎡

One of the biggest questions we've been asked is, "Will the carnival be back for Corn on the Curb?"

The reality is this: bringing the carnival to town costs about $7,000.

The carnival does provide us with presale ride tickets that we can sell before the event to help offset that cost. In past years, we've sold some tickets and given some away as promotions, but we've never sold enough to make a significant impact on the overall expense.

We want to know what our community thinks.

Would you support bringing the carnival back?

👍 Yes, I'd like to see it return.
❤️ No, I'm okay without it.

If you vote YES, we'd also love to know:

- Would you purchase presale ride tickets?
- Would your business consider sponsoring the event?
- Do you have ideas that could help make the carnival financially possible?

Corn on the Curb has always been about bringing our community together. We can't make a decision this big without hearing from the people who enjoy the festival.

Please vote, comment, and share your thoughts. Your input will help shape the future of the festival.
