Free 2022 State Fair admission passes are now available for the Read & Win program.

To honor outstanding academic achievement, the state fair is partnering with schools and public libraries to promote youth reading. The Read & Win program encourages summer reading as an incentive to earn free admission to the state fair for children across the state. This unique program can complement a current reading program or serve as the foundation of a new program.

Interested schools or libraries can find registration information online at www.sdstatefair.com or by contacting the State Fair office in Huron at 605-353-7340. To be eligible for free youth passes, register no later than Monday, Aug. 22.

The Read & Win program is sponsored by Ag Performance.
