Are you ready?! We are officially 60 days away from the start of the FAIR and it’s starting to feel real! Who's with us?! Soon the barns will be full, grandstand events will be underway, pounds of fair food will be eaten, livestock and horse shows will fill the grounds, and new memories will be made.

There really is nothing quite like fair week in Ottawa County. 🙌🏻
