Event Attendees can also enjoy midway arcade games (Balloon Pop, Basketball, Water Race & More) and an Axe Throwing Game.
PLUS, “Ready, Set, Shop” at the 4-H Rummage Sale (Friday thru Sunday) in the Junior Fair Building. If shopping isn’t your thing, then enjoy hands-on activities for youth along with a Petting Zoo (Animal Meet & Greet) with all 4-H Activity Proceeds benefiting Cuyahoga County 4-H.
