Hundreds of Exhibitors from all over the state and all ages enter items in the Open Class Exhibits every year. Printed copies are available at most banks throughout Dodge County, the Fair Office, Beaver Dam and Juneau Piggly Wiggly, and Beaver Dam Food Pride. The online version is a good reference for quick look-up or for printing extra entry sheets. If you have any questions about entering items in the Open Class Exhibits please reply in the comments section below or call the superintendent for that area directly.
All exhibitors and anyone interested should join the Open Class Exhibitors Facebook Group

I’m just curious, if I’m not living in the surrounding area can I enter an item in the open class? I used to enter in the junior fair but life moved me elsewhere. Kind of wanted to know if I could possibly enter seeing as I attend the fair every year even though I’m not young anymore. It’s a great fair and I wouldn’t miss it! Thank you so much. :)
Yes, you can still enter items for judging. The Open Class Exhibitor division is open to anyone from any location or age. Read and understand the rules for the category which you plan to enter in advance. More questions and answers available at https://dodgecountyfairgrounds.com/faqs/
I have questions and suggestions that were discussed last year with the open class list of catagory entries. Specifically Open class metal work. Can someone reply to me before the fair book is printed? The catagories might be printed in if it agreed they are agrred on. Thank you.
We received your voicemail and have assigned it for Sally to return your call. Thank you for the suggestion!
I am interested in adding a NEW class in the OPEN division of judging. There are several entries which would increase interest in metal work. I personally know of 3 persons who would happily enter in a metal work, metal restoration, metal class. Thank you.
Great suggestion! Your message has been forwarded to Sally Schoenike for consideration.
Could I please get an entry form?
Thanks for asking, you are a little early. Entry forms will be available early July. If you want to start working on your projects now use the prior year categories and guidelines, there are very few changes each year.
Could I please get the entry form? Thank you!
We would be happy to send you printable entry forms (and will be posted here) as soon as they are available for 2018.
