Readers visiting WNA member websites and social platforms from June 24 to July 6 were asked which canceled summer activities they would miss most in 2020. Out of 109 respondents, 24% chose July 4th parades and fireworks, 23% said the Wisconsin State Fair and county fairs, and 26% chose “other.”
The full question and results can be found below:

While the sample size for our poll questions remains small, the results can still offer members a starting point for writing their own stories. As more members post the poll questions and engagement increases, we hope to offer more statistically significant results.
