MAUMEE, Ohio — Nothing spells summer like fair time, and this week you can enjoy the Lucas County Fair!
Head over to the fairgrounds in Maumee to get your fair food fix from now until July 18.
Fair officials say much of the fun and events begin Tuesday. They are hoping the rain doesn't keep too many people away for the week.
"It's going good. I'm hoping for a great turnout. I love to see people walking around and having a great time, even the little kids," Lucas County Fair Board Member Jodi Flores said. "So hopefully we can get through it this week, weather permitting, but I'm hoping people just come out and see it."
On Tuesday, first responders get free admission to the fair for First Responders Day, then Senior and Veteran Day is on Wednesday.
Fair rides do not begin until 4 p.m. on Tuesday. Head over to the Lucas County Fairgrounds Facebook page for a list of events for the week.
