Kidbucks Game Show at the DuPage County Fair

A thrilling  game show where randomly selected members of the audience, participate in wild and crazy games.  The final winner enters the Kidbucks chamber and grabs as many “Kidbucks “  as possible, as they swirl about the chamber.  Catch the fun, excitement and prizes!  If you would like to be a contestant on the show, you must get your free raffle ticket at the beginning of the show, and be between the ages of 3 - 15  You could be the big winner!
 
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.

AG Magic Show

AG Magic Show at the DuPage County Fair

Ag Magic is an Ag-awareness entertainment show.  Rhonda knows that agriculture is a forgotten industry for most people in this county.  Even though agriculture is the MOST important industry in this nation and in the world, the majority of Americans go about their day not realizing that everything they touch, consume, and wear has a direct connection to agriculture and a farmer.

The Ag Magic Show is a completely engaging show with kids and parents not only helping in making the magic happen, but also testing their own agricultural knowledge.

Kids are at the edge of their seats ready to help and answer questions thrown out by Rhonda. 

Rhonda Renee is an experienced entertainer performing virtually around the world as part of the mother/daughter team of Rice and Renee.  She has performed from Madison Square Garden to television shows such as The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.  Rhonda uses magic, storytelling, juggling, and music to get the agriculture message across in a fun entertaining way.

Great American Duck Race

Great American Duck Race at the DuPage County Fair

High Entertainment Value: "You can't watch ducks race without smiling." Almost every performance has audience members who have returned to see the show for the second or third time.

Unique: This show offers the "something different" people have been wanting. T.V., radio, and newspapers have fodder for endless "wise quacks" and "fowl jokes" about the new attraction for your event. The show owner's name, Robert Duck, just adds to the fun.

Educational: Interesting facts about Mallard duck are revealed throughout the show. The educational portion of the show was prepared by the Ducks Unlimited, Inc. national staff, exclusively for the Great American Duck Race of New Mexico.

Hands on Fun: Sixteen children (and adults) are chosen during each show to release the ducks in the race track. Prizes are given to the winners of each race.  Five races during each show.
