85cc Youth competitors are between the ages of 7 and 15​

I am the type of person
that will eat before leaving home
when going to most ballpark/county fair type events



But I bring my appetite to the Dairyland Classic
The Lion's Club and the Farm Bureau
do a great job of burgers, brats and my favorite the steak sammich



I enjoy the sandwich with a home style root beer float
