The Fond du Lac County Emergency Management director is encouraging residents to drink plenty of water and know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion or heat stroke. Bobbie Hicken says Fairgoers should drink plenty of water and take breaks in the air conditioned Expo Center or Rec Building. “Definately hydrate and don’t wait until you’re thirsty because then you’re body is already struggling by that time,” Hicken told WFDL news. Check on friends, relatives and neighbors who may not have air conditioning to make sure they are okay.
