Everyone over the age of 60 gets to enjoy the fair free of charge today as a way to honor our senior citizens in the area. Two parties were planned in the gospel tent with live music, snacks, and other entertainment. Local agencies were also set up in the tent such as the Allen County Council on Aging and The Springs of Lima. The seniors at the fair have paid their dues through the years, and now it’s time to give them a day of free fun.
Seniors filled up the Allen County Fairgrounds to have a little fun and take a stroll down memory lane.
Health providers and care facilities in Auglaize County put together fun activities for older fairgoers to enjoy for Senior Day at the fair. The Community Relations Group invited seniors into the junior fair building for a free lunch and other things to do throughout the afternoon.
There were also special activities planned for senior citizens in the area as well.
