9:30 a.m. Miniature Horse Hitch, Grandstand 10:00 Pony & Draft Horse Hitches, Grandstand This is the largest one-day hitch show in the state of Ohio. Visitors are treated to 24 classes, starting with carts all the way up to six-horse hitches. Watch Grade Draft, Belgian, Percheron and Haflinger ponies show off their style and their talents. The grand finale has up to nine teams of six-hitch draft horses. 10:00 Church Service, Coliseum Everyone is welcome to the Sunday morning, non-denominational church services held in the Coliseum. Lots of singing and plenty of seating to accommodate anyone who wants to attend. Come worship together with fellow community members. 10:00 Jr. Horse Show Contest, Riding Arena 1:00 p.m. Fiddling Contest, Coliseum Another Wayne County Fair favorite and it always draws a big crowd. The Coliseum holds up to 500 people ready to listen to these talented musicians. The fiddling contest brings individual contestants from all over the state of Ohio. Come see if you agree with the three judges who is the best fiddler in each age group. 2:00 Kiddie Tractor Pull, Show Arena (Wayne County Residents Only) In this standing room only event, children ages 4-9 years of age compete with pedal tractors to pull weighted sleds. The weight varies for each age group. The fair board provides the pedal tractors and the sleds and the kids provide all the power and entertainment. First, second and third place winners will be awarded. All participants receive a ribbon and a ticket for one fair ride for participating. 3:00 Jr. Fair Baking Auction, Carter Building Bring home a taste of the fair as home-baked cakes, pies, and more go to the auction block. 7:00 Pie in the Face Auction, Coliseum This is one of those events done all in good fun that raises money at the same time. It's a great fundraiser for 4-H. The Junior Fair King and Queen and members of the fair board participate. Pies (pie pans filled with whipped cream) get auctioned off and the winning bidder gets to put the pie in the face of the person auctioned with the pie. It's fun and messy. 7:30 Square Dance, Coliseum Everyone will be on their feet doing a hoedown style square dance. All are welcome to join in the fun, including beginners who will have a chance to walk through each dance to learn the steps. It's all fun and without the fancy, formal square dancing dress code. 8:00pm The Beach Boys, Grandstand Get ready to pick up some good vibrations as the beloved American institution known as the Beach Boys bring their timeless sounds and songs to Wayne County. These Rock and Roll Hall of Famers have fans that span multiple generations and will share their harmonic sounds of summer with both oldies and hits from their 50th Anniversary Tour.
