The Mercer County Fair kicked off today in Celina, running now through Aug. 13.
If you've got county fair fever, there's one more left in our area to enjoy before the season is over. The Hardin County Fair kicked off on Tuesday and is underway in Kenton. It's got everything you could expect out of a county fair—rides and games for the kids, one-of-a-kind food to enjoy, and of course the Junior Fair competition with 4-H students showing off their livestock. The Hardin County Fair has something for everyone, and they are proud to partner with the county board of developmental disabilities to offer a mobile sensory space and mobile adaptive restroom and changing station.
The fair season continues just up 1-75 in Findlay with the Hancock County Fair. This year is the 172nd year for the Hancock County Fair. It has everything you can expect—from the delicious fair food like corndogs, elephant ears, and cotton candy to the rides and attractions for all ages to enjoy. Fair officials have been pleased with the attendance they've seen this week despite the heat and high temperatures, but it takes a team effort to organize a county fair, and the whole community has chipped in.

If you start counting the number of sheep and lambs at the Allen County Fair, you will be in dreamland before you know it. But the kids that are showing them in the arena have a bigger dream in mind. There is a lot of hard work that goes into raising the lambs, but for some of the kids, it's a lot of fun too.
Kids are getting creative to share their project highlights at the Allen County Fair, and it has never been done before until this year. Our Conner Prince shares the story! When we think of the fair, we typically think of showing cows, chickens, and rabbits, but what about podcasts?
