(ABC 6 News) – Sunday marked the final day of the North Iowa Fair and it’s these types of events that typically bring in big bucks for vendors. However, they say given the current state of the economy and high gas prices this year, there are a few extra hurdles to jump through. Owner Jamie Jones said because they don’t have a set home base and are always on the road, gas prices have taken a toll on them. Jones said while events like the North Iowa Fair typically allow them to get their name out and get a couple of bucks along the way, she said that hasn’t been the case this year. Alphs said that high gas prices have been an inconvenience, but they have been able to manage.
