In addition, a special promotion for $39 gets you two adult admission tickets, two orders of cheese curds and two bottled sodas with the coupon “222 for YOU!” It can be presented at any admission sales booth.

The package is a savings of $19 over the $58 value, and the coupon is valid through the full run of the fair.
