County Fair

Since 2005, the Sterling Eureka and Laketown Historical Society has been represented at the Polk County WI Fair

 SELHS has hosted the Red School House on the Fairgrounds for many years, after having first done it in 2006, then helping out in the years after with the past several years being in charge of the exhibits and volunteers. 

Most years between 1500 - 2000 folks visit the school house to look at the historic exhibits or to play school with quills, paints, colors, slates and more.  

2023 had an attendance of nearly 2000 folks in spite of a storm closing down the Fair at 4 pm Thursday evening.
