SPENCERVILLE, Ohio (WLIO) - Spencerville officially kicked off summer with their annual Summerfest, now in its 31st year.
The fairgrounds will be open to the public on Friday and Saturday to enjoy the classic fair food everyone waits all year for. Although the fair is technically over and all the animals have left, the vendors were welcome to stay and hold the spotlight for the remaining days that the fair was scheduled for. Whether you like your treats fried, frozen, or on a stick, the dozen or so vendors at the fairgrounds are ready.
Every county fair board in Ohio had the challenge of following Governor DeWine’s mandates in order to open their gates for the fair. The president of the Mercer County Fairboard, Ryan Fenning, says that they’re already working on next year's fair, so making final decisions just weeks before the fair this year wasn’t easy.
