Just like any other county in Ohio, we have a summer fair. I am from Van Wert, so ours always starts at the end of August and the beginning of September, Ever since this past Wednesday, I've been going to the fair every single day with my boyfriend. It's been a pretty fun time, even though I haven't had any money to spend on food and games.
I remember when I was a little girl, I would go to the Demolation Derby with my family. The Demo Derby is always on the second to last day of the fair. We always have it and I don't think I can ever remember not having it because of any reason. Eveyone in town likes to go and watch the cars get all mashed up. I've only gone one time, but we couldn't stay very long because I had school the next day.
When I was in high school, we'd always be in school by the time fair comes around. We would have to go all week while other schools were able to have 'fair days'. It would start Wednesday and end a week from that day. We would always have to go to school on the first three days of fair but then was able to have the following weekend and the first three days of the week off, which was pretty nice.
I am going to the fair tonight with my boyfriend then tomorrow with my family, as long as it doesn't start pouring down rain. I absolutely love going to the fair and seeing all the people I use to hang out with; plus eating the salty french fries. It's one of my favorite times of the year!
Is there a fair for each season? In Alabama, we just had 1 fair, and it was always in October.
