SEDALIA, Mo. (AP) -- Missourians can win $529 at the State Fair to set aside for college.

Treasurer Clint Zweifel is sponsoring the raffle and the winnings must be invested in a plan under the state's college savings program. Winners must be at least 18 years old and live in Missouri.

To enter, fairgoers should visit the college savings plan booth at the Agriculture Building. The winner gets cash for college, and second prize will be a back-to-school bag filled with school supplies. Zweifel's office also awarded $529 to a Jefferson City woman who entered an online contest.

The Missouri State Fair opened Thursday and closes Aug. 22.
