A cooler breeze blew through the show barns as the day opened with the junior fair saddle horse classes, draft horse hitching classes and the junior fair goat show. On the midway, families enjoyed the first day of harness racing, the rooster crowing contest and fair food. “I have to get a chocolate milkshake,” said Sue Fink of Sheffield. Fink and her husband, Mo, patronize the Ashtabula County Holstein Club’s concession stand, a landmark at the fair. Mo Fink ordered a strawberry ice-cream cone. “Delicious!” he said. Along with the usual gobs of cotton candy and doughnuts, fair-going food connoisseurs of the Jefferson area delighted in sausage sandwiches, Chinese food, barbecue chicken, hamburgers and even Hawaiian shaved ice. Allison Stouffer, 10, of Kingsville, and her friend Cheyenne Nemitz, 10, of North Kingsville, sat on a bench at the west end of the fairgrounds, happily scooping the shaved ice into their mouths. “I have cinnamon,” Allison said. Cheyenne said, “I got black cherry, and yesterday I ate black cherry and banana.” The girls’ next stop was the Ferris wheel.
