Kids are invited to do the ‘Agriculture Scavenger Hunt’ at this year’s East Otter Tail County Fair. The program, sponsored by the Minnesota Farm Bureau, provides children of all ages an opportunity to learn about agriculture as they enjoy the sights and sounds of exhibits and livestock shows.

Children participating in the activity will learn about products grown and raised on Minnesota farms and made from Minnesota commodities while viewing displays. Children can pick up an activity sheet at the fair office. The activity sheet contains agricultural questions. As children tour the fair exhibits, they will find specially placed posters containing the information necessary to complete the 10 question activity sheet. Once completed the sheet should be returned to the starting location.

The goal of the projects is to help children gain a better understanding of farming and agriculture and its importance to Minnesota. Submitted Activity sheets will receive a prize.

Get ready for a whole lotta shakin’ going on at the fair!

Brad Boice started his Elvis Tribute in 2005 almost by mistake. He was attending a musical impersonator show with his wife Julann and friends. After watching the two “Elvis” impersonators perform that night, one of his friends said “Brad, you can sing Elvis better than that!” and left to talk to the band. Within moments, Brad was on stage singing “Can’t Help Falling in Love”. The crowd loved it! Since that night he has entertained thousands of people in many different venues across the United States. From his home state of Minnesota to Las Vegas, Nevada, Branson, Missouri, Cozumel, Mexico, San Juan, Puerto Rico and many points in between. Brad has also been a featured performer multiple times on both Royal Caribbean and Carnival Cruise lines.

Brad and his beautiful wife Julann have been married 30 years. They have two grown children, Mitch and Matti. When not on stage Brad is a Public Works Supervisor for the City of Eyota, MN and Julann works in General Service at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN.

• Grand Champion at the Mall of America’s “Contest of Kings”

• Two time Grand Champion at the LCO Casino “Elvis” contest
