A wide variety of events and free admission proved to be the right combination for the 2011 Linn County Fair, which shattered attendance records.

The fair ended Monday night, July 11, at the Linn County Fairgrounds in Central City with attendance estimated at 34,000 for the week.

Attendance was up 9,000, or 35 percent, from the 2010 attendance of 25,000. It was up 250 percent from 2006 levels.
