We are delighted to present an exciting and fulfilling opportunity for you and anyone you may wish to collaborate with to make a significant impact on our community this year. We firmly believe that this endeavor is well worth your consideration and exploration.

As you are aware, the Dubuque County Fairgrounds and Event Center holds a cherished place in our community, serving as a gathering place for families and friends to create cherished memories, commemorate milestones, and foster a sense of community. As a non-profit organization that hosts over 400 events annually, we rely unwaveringly on the generosity and support of local businesses, partners, and donors whom we deeply respect. Their contributions are instrumental in enabling us to enhance our facilities and maintain the vibrant atmosphere that permeates every corner of our spaces.

We are honored to announce that our most significant fundraising event of the year, the annual Blue Ribbon Breakfast, will be held on April 13, 2025. These events are pivotal in securing the necessary funding for essential improvements, including the renovation of several buildings to enhance both the aesthetic and functional aspects of our facility. The proceeds raised from this event will enable us to continue providing a welcoming and stimulating environment where generations of families can gather for years to come. To ensure the success of the auction, we are actively seeking items or experiences that will captivate competitive bidding and significantly enhance the value of our esteemed event.

Your unwavering support would be profoundly beneficial in this endeavor. Whether through donations, auction items, silent auction items, or sponsorships, your contribution will directly facilitate the realization of these improvements and enable us to sustain the heart of our community. Your involvement in this cause would be invaluable to us—and to the countless families who benefit from the warm and welcoming doors of our hundreds of events.

As a token of our profound gratitude, we would be honored to display your generosity by prominently featuring your business logo (or, for individual donors, your name) on our event advertising materials, social media platforms, and our forthcoming website revamp during the holiday season. Furthermore, you will receive special recognition during the event, both verbally and in print, where you will be celebrated alongside the numerous esteemed supporters who make this endeavor possible. Kindness is a cornerstone of our community.

If you wish to contribute solely through attendance at the breakfast, tickets are currently available for purchase in our office or over the phone.

I cannot emphasize sufficiently the profound impact your benevolence and support would have on us. The significance of your contribution extends far beyond the tangible improvements we aspire to achieve—it ensures that the fairgrounds and event center will continue to serve as a vibrant hub where individuals of all ages can forge cherished traditions and memories for generations to come, while simultaneously providing a welcoming, secure, and comforting environment.

Should you be interested in collaborating with us or seeking further information on how you can become involved, whether through a monetary donation or auction items, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at 563-588-1406 or b.morgan@dbqfair.com. I would be delighted to engage in a discussion with you regarding how we can collaborate to make this year’s fundraisers our most resounding success yet. The unwavering joy and smiles that permeate the thousands who visit these premises annually for various events serve as a testament to the transformative power of your generosity.

From the depths of our hearts, we extend our sincere gratitude for considering this opportunity to make a lasting and meaningful impact. Your community expresses its profound appreciation for your compassion and thoughtfulness.
