The Ashland County Fair opened Sunday, starting things off early with steer and rabbit show and an opening ceremony at noon. The Junior Fair king and queen, Nick Cartwright and Sage Runion, were named and musicians showed their talent in the Parade of Bands.

Later in the day women got to show off their skills of throwing skillets, followed by a tractor pull and square dance.
