Jake Carlson of Jake's Excavating

Jake and his team have been the Fair’s go-to for emergency dirt work like water lines, drainage and special projects. Jake has provided many pieces of equipment for short notice needs to get the Grandstand track back in shape after heavy rains so the next show can go on among many other short notice projects. His experience and expertise has been extremely valuable to the Wright County Fair.
