At least one part of the Coshocton County Fair will be as normal as possible this year : the food .
Fourteen food vendors will be at the Coshocton County Fairgrounds Friday , Oct . 2 through Tuesday , Oct . 6 from 11 a . m . to 7 p . m . The vendors will be set up by the grandstand , and there will be plenty of parking and easy access .
“ The reason we decided to do this as a fair board was to support the vendors that support us during the fair ,” said Tom Roahrig , concessions manager and member of the senior fair board . “ This has been tough times for everybody including our vendors . Many places haven ’ t had full fairs , and a lot of places have canceled their fairs . This way people can still get their fair food fix .”
Roahrig made sure there will be as much variety as possible amongst the different vendors . There will be bourbon chicken , pulled pork , sugar-coated waffles , cotton candy , caramel apples , Stromboli , pizza , elephant ears , funnel cakes , deep-fried veggies and more .
“ The main thing I tried to do was not double up on anything ,” Roahrig said . “ There will be one pizza , one Stromboli , one sugarcoated waffles vendor . It ’ s not a big enough venue to have doubles . We wanted to have an assortment of food and make sure everybody was able to make some money .”

There will be no admission to come into the fairgrounds to get food . While the official kick-off for the event is Oct . 2 , Roahrig said some vendors will be open on Thursday evening , Oct . 1 . A few also will offer breakfast items . Those who come to get food only , however , will not be permitted into the junior fair show area . A gate will separate the two areas , and someone will be there checking wristbands .
“ A lot of planning has gone into this , and a lot of calls have been made to make sure everything is working out ,” Roahrig said . “ It ’ s an ongoing venture and uncharted territory . The world gave us lemons , though , and we are going to have a lemonade stand .”
