Welcome to the
Great Darke County Fair
By Naiesha Thobe, Teen Scribe
The crunch of the first day of the fair doesn’t seem to deter people
from visiting the fairgrounds. On the opening day, the fairgrounds were
already packed with people searching for food, fun, entertainment, or
social meetings.
For the adults visiting the fair, there’s the food. There’s plenty of
concession stands to choose from, and even a few new ones this year!
There are also rides for the excitement-seeking adults, the regulars
such as the Screamer and the Ferris wheel.
For the children and young at heart, there’s several new rides this
year. More mild rides for the less adventurous; but never fear, the
same old ‘wild’ rides are available for the children as well. As usual,
there is a multitude of games for one to choose from, both new and old.
The prizes are aplenty and there is fun to be had.
For any and all, the animal barns are filled with their corresponding
animal: pigs, sheep, rabbits... The animals go on and on. Not to
mention the well-known petting zoo.
The Coliseum is filled with goodies upon goodies, ranging from books to
fudge to glass figurines. There are contests to sign up for and prizes
to be had, some with a new prize everyday!
On Sunday, Foreigner joined the population of the Great Darke County
Fair. Monday was the Marching Band Spectacular. I hope you enjoyed the
music, as well as looked for the Greenville Marching Band!
These are just a couple events occurring during the week that the Darke
County Fair will be here. For further information, check the website
below!
Don’t miss your chance to experience the Darke County Fair while the
weather’s cool and tolerable! Hope to see you there!
