ALLEN COUNTY, OH (WLIO) - Marching bands from high schools all around the region put on a great show at the fair on Sunday night.
A weekend full of music got kicked off Friday night at the Allen County Fair, with the Kewpee Showcase of Bands. For over 40 years, Kewpee has sponsored the event that gives the bands a chance to show their stuff before football season starts. Twelve bands took to the grandstand track to perform a selection of songs for the crowd. But before the bands play their first note, there is a lot of practice that goes into their performance. Members of Friday's host band Elida were ready to show how their hard work has paid off.
There are somethings that are synonymous with the Allen County Fair. Food, rides, and of course the Kewpee Showcase of Bands.
