What Dubuque County Fair Association does
Mission
The Dubuque County Fair Association exists to bring people together and provide an atmosphere where family traditions are created and continued.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Dubuque County Fair Association. Fair activities include: livestock and farm activities, as well as musical entertainment, stock car races, and concessions. A total of about 40,000 persons attended the annual fair.
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $1.1M to $1.3M (+18%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2020 6% · 2021 15% · 2022 2% · 2023 5% · 2024 13% · 2025 5%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
