We are officially less than ONE WEEK AWAY from the first day of the Henry County Fair!

There is plenty of information available to our families, so be sure to take time to review this info.

Here are a few things to review…

The OSU Extension office will be on limited hours during the week of fair as our staff will be at the Henry County Fair the majority of the time, please make your family is aware.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out via email (parcher.6@osu.edu) with any questions in the meantime as we will be in and out of the office in preparation for the 2022 Henry County Fair!
