Every Day is Father's Day at the Ohio State Fair!

Posted on 7:38 AM by Unknown
You probably spent this past weekend celebrating your dear ole dad for Father's Day. Well, here at the Ohio State Fair, we say, why not make every day Father's Day?

With plenty of activities that families can enjoy together, there's no better place to spend some quality time and pay your parent back for all of the great things they do all year. Here are just a few ideas:

Giant Slide
Sometimes dads like to be kids too! Make the 105-stair trek up to the top of the enormous yellow slide that premiered at the Ohio State Fair in 1969. Grab a couple of burlap sacks and race dad to the bottom!

Natural Resources Park
Explore the outdoors with dad at your side. With fishing, kayaking and archery at this beautiful eight-acre park, there are not only plenty of activities, but many things to observe as well, such as Ohio wildlife, a log cabin and a tall grass prairie.

Dairy Products Building
With so many things to do, you and dad will surely build up an appetite. Visit the Dairy Products Building and treat yourselves to some delicious Ohio-produced ice cream while admiring the famous butter cow display, a Fair tradition since 1903.

There is truly an endless amount of things to do at the Fair with your dad, mom or special someone. So, take that person to the 2011 Ohio State Fair and show them that they are truly Fairtastic!
