Come Back to the Fair!In addition to the many great Grandstand concerts at this year's DuPage County Fair, you will also see... Christa Wells & Nicole Witt The Jen Justice Band
The Jen Justice Band [The JJB] was formed in the city Of Chicago in the spring of 2004. The band came together as a result of a chance meeting between Ray McKenzie, the band's guitarist and Jennifer Jucovics at a Starbucks across from the CME where Ray and Jen worked. Jen had been singing in cafes around Chicago and Ray was looking for a lead singer for a band he was putting together with his childhood best friend, Drummer Dean Cassara. Ray and Dean had reunited and decided to put together a new band, having been members of the fusion band Forest. Together Ray, Dean and Jen formed the nucleus of The JJB and have been entertaining audiences in the Chicago metropolitan area ever since.

How the game is played Nine contestants between the ages of three and fifteen are chosen from the audience by a raffle system. The contestants are divided into three groups based on their size and physical ability. Each group of three contestants play wild and crazy games to determine a winner. The winner of each heat moves into the winners circle to await the final round and the runners up all receive a prize. When all three semi finalists have been determined , the final round is played. In this round the semifinalists "spin to win" on the winners wheel. Age and size give no one an advantage. Only lady luck knows who will win this round! The one who spins the highest number is the grand champion and enters the money chamber where they have 30 seconds to grab as many Kidbucks as they can as they swirl about the chamber. The Kidbucks are redeemed for prizes based on the number of bucks collected. Additionally at the end of the show, one more ball from the raffle machine is drawn and the person that holding that ticket wins a prize as well. Agricadabra
