This Friday’s ZOOM Meeting will feature Dale Klick, President, Stark County Fair. County Fairs are as American as fireworks, hot dogs and apple pie. We all have memories of going to the Stark County fair growing up, and then taking our children, and now grandchildren, to the fair each Labor Day weekend. This year, many county fairs have either been cancelled or greatly reduced due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
 
However, the 2020 Stark County Fair is “on” and Dale will highlight some of the changes and safeguards that are being taken to provide that special “Junior Fair” experience for the 1,000 or more 4-H’ers that have worked so hard on their projects this year.
 
The county fair is a once-a-year opportunity for urban and rural communities to meet, greet, mix, mingle, and learn about and appreciate each other and our different ways of living.    
 
Dale is also General Manager at Progressive Auto Group, is married to Angie and has 3 daughters, twins Ila and Emma (17), and Anna (13), all of whom are involved in Jr Fair and 4H. Dales has been involved with the Stark County Fair since, well, forever.
 
Please join our ZOOM meeting this Friday for a fun and informative presentation about a Stark County institution. And remember to bring your corn dogs, elephant ears and cotton candy!
