Chippewa Falls (WQOW) -- Managers continue to draw more events to the Northern Wisconsin State Fairgrounds site.

They say they have to use the fairgrounds more than once a year, to keep the annual fair alive. Now, two more events are already on the schedule. More than 250,000 motorcyclists are due in town Thursday for a tailgate party which will last all weekend. And in late August, up to 5,000 people are expected for a first annual Hmong Festival.
